JVC's new lineup of Mini DV Camcorders (GR-D395, GR-D396 and GR-D650)
JVC, has unveiled five new models JVC MiniDV camcorder line, offering advancements in performance and handling. We missed out on the other three models from the new line-up of the Mini DV camcorders. Lets take a closer look at the other three camcorder models unveiled by JVC, GR-D395, GR-D396 and GR-D650, camcorder models. Like the D350 and the D370 models, which has already got a mention in our site, the other three models also comes with a 32X optical zoom, 16:9 modes and a built-in tele-conversion lens. JVC has made a conscious effort to make sure that the customers should find it easy to handle the camcorders. With the new Auto button, users can easily sswitch between manual and automatic operations, making it easier to use than ever. And also the models feature a new on-screen menu system that sorts menu layers by category, making operation easier. Lets take a closer look at the three models here.
JVC GR-D395:
It offers features such as such as a data battery that displays time remaining with and without LCD use; live slow, which records in slow motion while retaining real-time audio; JVC’s Auto Illumi-Light for illuminating dark scenes; Power-Linked operation that turns on the power and puts the Samsung GR D395 in standby mode simply by opening the LCD; and the company’s Clear LCD Monitor that delivers a bright, clear image by reducing reflection and glares, even in bright sunlight
JVC GR-D396:
The D396 more or less offers the same features that we find in the D395 camcorder. But what distinguishes the two is the battery , as it comes with two 90-minute BN-VF707 batteries and just a touch expensive when compared to the D395 camcorder.
JVC GR-D650:
This Camcorder is probably the cream of the new Mini DV camcorders from JVC. It is powered by a built-in 1.3X tele-conversion lens and JVC’s Low Light Plus – combining an F1.2 lens with the company’s 3D noise reduction that reduces visible video noise by approximately 30 percent and delivers superior low light performance. Also it incorporates a MegaBird Engine.
