JVC X2B 3CCD SVHS Camcorder
Comes with viewfinder, Canon 13x lens. Hard carry case, tripod mounting
plate. 4-IDX Batteries and Charger Camera has 428 hours
This camera is in excellent condition, having been well cared for by a
professional video production company. This camera performs very well in low
light. When it was first introduced several years ago, this camera model
quickly became well-known for the outstanding quality of its picture.
Super-VHS has since been surpassed by higher quality recording formats, but
the good news is, it is possible to capture footage from this camera that
looks like it came from a much more expensive digital camera. Here's the
secret: in addition to using the built-in SVHS recording deck, simply use
the line-out connection to plug into a portable DVD burner or DV VCR This
allows you take maximum advantage of the GY-X2's 750 lines of resolution
(SVHS only captures about 400 lines). The result: footage that looks like
it came from a high-end digital camera, but for a fraction of the cost!
Here is the link to view the full technical specs on this camera:

THREE HIGH-DENSITY 1/2" CCDS The GY-X2BU camcorder features three advanced
1/2" CCDs, which apply cutting-edge technologies to deliver an outstanding
resolution of 750 horizontal lines. Innovative MICRO-LENSES, along with a
larger light shield to reduce reflections and light leakages, achieve highly
efficient light conversion for a sensitivity of F8.0, 2000 lux. This comes
with virtually no smearing and an impressive S/N ratio of 62 dB. But there's
more. In the LOLUX mode operators can tap performance that reproduces top-
quality pictures at a minimum illumination of just 1.5 lux at F1.4.
LOLUX 1.5 lux LOLUX is a remarkable innovation that lets you shoot with
almost no light. Now, you can capture superb pictures with excellent color
balance at a mere 1.5 lux illumination. A push of a button activates the
LOLUX mode, which increases sensitivity with almost no increase in noise.
Exceptionally high sensitivity of 1.5 lux results from combining electronic
gain boost and unique dual pixel readout technology.
OUICK RECORDING MODE Sometimes losing a few seconds can mean losing a shot.
That's why JVC developed the Quick Record Mode. When turned on, the camera
is set to the auto iris mode, even if the lens is set to manual. Also
activated is Automatic Level Control (ALC) with Extended Electronic Iris
(EEI) which provides both variable gain and variable shutter. Now you can
shoot continuously from a dark hallway to the bright outdoors without the
need to change gain, iris or ND filter. There is also a Full Time Auto White
(FAW) circuit, which tracks color temperature automatically, so an operator
can follow a subject moving from incandescent to fluorescent to outdoor
light without adjusting white balance or changing the filter wheel. Just
point and shoot.
MULTI-ZONE IRIS WEIGHTING The Multi-Zone Iris Weighting system features a
new detection method that gives preference to objects at the central and
lower portions of the picture. This provides highly accurate auto iris
exposures under the full gamut of shooting conditions, even if a bright
subject moves into the picture.
VARIABLE SCAN VIEW The Variable Scan View function allows flicker-free
shooting of a CRT, even when the vertical scan rate is different from the
camera's. Electronic shutter increments can be set over 305 steps from
1/60.1 sec. to 1/2084.6 sec.
EXTERNAL MICROPHONE Two external microphones can be easily connected to the
GY-X2U via the two XLR connectors or one stereo microphone can be mounted
via a 6-pin connector.
ELECTRONIC SHUTTER The GY-X2BU offers a wide range of shutter settings
covering all conceivable shooting conditions. Press the shutter speed button
and the electronic shutter lets you select speeds from 1/100 to 1/2000 sec.
Simply touch the NORMAL button to return to the standard speed of 1/60 sec.
CONTINUOUS AUTO BLACK A new CAB (Continuous Auto Black) circuit that allows
continuous correction of black balance by sampling the CCD's optical black
has been introduced. This assures perfect black balance under changing
environments without the need to interrupt the shooting to perform black
balance.
VIEWFINDER STATUS OVERLAY The handy Viewfinder Status Overlay displays key
information directly to the operator through the viewfinder including audio
levels, accumulated or remaining recording time, VTR operation, as well as
battery voltage and camera setup parameters.
TRIPOD BASE The handy tripod base of the GY-X2BU provides quick, secure
attachment with a positive automatic locking mechanism. No separate locking
lever is needed and release requires just a flip of a simple lever at the
side.
NEW SHOULDER PAD A newly designed, 1/2" sculpted shoulder pad ensures
comfort and stability when shooting.
ERGONOMIC DESIGN Excellent ergonomics was a key consideration in the GY-X2BU
design. The camera head is designed to be both lightweight and durable. The
body itself is smoothly molded for improved "feel" so that the camcorder
becomes a natural extension of the operator's body. Weight is also perfectly
balanced. Naturally, all switches and controls are optimally located for
easy finger-tip operation.
HI-FI STEREO SOUND With its rotary FM hi-fi audio heads, the GY-X2BU
delivers superb quality sound recording. There is greater dynamic range,
enhanced frequency response, and improved wow and flutter. It also includes
two linear audio channels with Dolby noise reduction. Dolby noise reduction
is manufactured under license from Dolby Laboratories Licensing corporation.
FULL SIZED DRUM WITH TWO ROTARY ERASE HEADS AND AEF Flying Erase Heads plus
Advanced Editing Function (AEF) guarantee professional quality in-camera
edits. Two Flying Erase Heads also allow insert edit capability for clean in
and out edit points. The Advanced Edit Function synchronizes the tape to the
incoming video during a 1.5 second preroll. This guarantees field accurate
editing eliminating the possibility of whip edits. For faster shooting, 0.5
second preroll is available. The full-sized drum allows for smooth, stress
free tape path, minimizing jitter and eliminating any possible tape damage.
EASY-TO-READ BACKLIT LCD PANEL Key information is displayed on an LCD
display including lap time/tape counter, remaining tape time, audio levels,
battery life, hour meter and other warning indications. The LCD is backlit
for quick easy reading under all lighting conditions.
AUTO REVIEW FUNCTION With the Auto Review function you can quickly review
the last two seconds of footage shot. Once the footage is played, the
GY-X2BU then re-enters the Record-Pause mode. There is also a handy safety
feature. To protect the tape and video heads, the tape is unloaded and the
unit enters the Stop mode if the Insert-Pause mode remains active for more
than 10 minutes.
BUILT-IN SPEAKER The GY-X2BU features an integrated speaker to monitor audio
and warning signal during recording and review the sound-track.
INSERT EDIT FUNCTION The GY-X2BU's easy-to-use insert-recording capability
allows previously recorded video and Hi-Fi audio signals to be accurately
replaced with new material.
RETAKE FUNCTION BY EDIT SEARCH The Retake Function allows you to check the
recorded picture without leaving the Record-Pause mode. Simply decide the
point where you want to start the next take, while checking the search
picture at normal speed in either direction.
POWER SUPPLY For maximum versatility, the GY-X2BU can be powered from either
its internal battery pack or an AC supply via the optional AA-P250U AC Power
Adapter NB-G1U battery packs can be installed in seconds and give
approximately 40 minutes continuous operating time. In addition, flat type
batteries can be used. (Sony NP-1B type.)
AUTO EQ FUNCTION The Auto EQ Function records high and low frequency
reference signals to assure optimum video resolution when played back on JVC
professional VTRs
ALU Automatic Level Up improves multi-generation chroma signal to noise
ratio. This circuit, found only on JVC professional VCR's, records low level
chroma signals at higher than normal level. During playback, the ACC circuit
compresses the chroma back to its normal level. Tape noise is also
compressed by the same amount, thus producing far less chroma noise.
OPTIONAL INTERNAL PLUG-IN SA-R200U TIME CODE GENERATOR To boost
post-production efficiency and permit program-logging, we offer a plug-in
Time Code Generator board (SA-R200U) as an option. Using it you can record
SMPTE-standard, LTC or VITC time code. The board is internally mounted to
save space and minimize weight. The sophisticated design means you can
record additional data in user bits with an internal real-time clock.
BUILT-IN GENLOCK CIRCUIT The GY-X2BU accepts composite video signals or
black burst via the camera's GENLOCK INPUT. Genlocking then synchronizes
multiple camera signals processed through an SEG for fades, mixes, wipes and
other effects.
OTHER FEATURES * Rugged die-cast body * Y/C output connector * Earphone jack
* Retake function with edit searching * Dual output system allows camera
output to be connected directly to an external recorder * Safety zone
indication available for the 16:9 screen format, in addition to the center
mark on/off capability
