High-Definition Digital Video Camera

GR-HD1

Printed in Japan

MZZ-2094HDSG Sales Tips & Information

HD (High Definition) used to be a realm

for professionals only, requiring

a substantial budget to purchase and

a professional camera crew to operate.

But now JVC breaks down the barriers,

putting HD performance within the grasp

of consumers. People who are interested

in HD for its unprecedented visual power,

or simply because they already own

an HDTV set, will quickly see the value of

JVC’s GR-HD1 — the HD CyberCam that

lets anybody create their own hi-def

movies.

For you the salesperson, we’ve compiled

this booklet to help you effectively

communicate the benefits of the GR-HD1

as a product, as well as HD as

the next-generation visual standard.

The Definitive Solution

The GR-HD1 is able to do what has long been considered

impossible — record a true Hi-Def image using only one

CCD. This section outlines how JVC did it.

1/3” 1.18 Megapixel Progressive Scan CCD

•Progressive scanning for clear image without the interline

motion blur caused by Interlace scanning.

•Pixel array of 1280 x 720 (for moving images) and 1280 x 960

(for stills).

Hybrid Complementary-Primary Digital Filter

•Uses 2 complementary colors Yellow and Cyan (Ye and Cy),

1 primary color Green (Gr), and clear (W).

•Shifts one pixel at a time across the CCD and combining

samples together in pairs for brightness and blocks of four

for color, delivering maximum resolution.

•Color performance nearly identical to 3 CCDs.

Y (Luminance) information is

obtained from pairs of picture

elements:

Yodd = (W+G) = (R+2G+B)

Yeven = (Cy+Ye) = ((G+B)+(R+G))

= (R+2G+B)

C (Chroma) information is

generated by combining blocks

of four picture elements:

R = (W+Ye) – (G+Cy)

G = (G+Cy+Ye) – W.

B = (W+Cy) – (G+Ye).

HD MPEG-2 Recording on MiniDV Cassette

•Same tape speed and track pattern as DV, with time axis also

encoded.

•Conforms to DVB and ATV standards.

•GOP (Group Of Pictures) = 6 to facilitate frame-accurate

editing.

Hi-Def F1.8–F1.9 Optically Stabilized Zoom Lens

•Almost no variance in brightness from full wide to full

telephoto.

•Multi-coated all-grass optics for low-distortion, ghost-free

images.

•High periphery resolution and brightness, high

edge-to-edge color purity.

•Manual focus and zoom rings on lens barrel.

•Optical Image Stabilizer using shift lens, original lens servo,

and new camera shake detection algorithm for superior

accuracy with no loss of resolution.

The Unprecedented Power

JVC’s innovative technology puts the power of 720p within

the grasp of consumers. This section touches on

the tangible benefits offered by this power.

*All “TV line” standard measurements are relative to the diameter of a circle

the same size as the picture height. 16:9 Horizontal TV lines figures appear to be

75% of the equivalent 4:3 Horizontal TV Lines would be if the measurement was

relative to the whole picture width, since the image is wider. (for example, the count

for the GR-HD1 HD mode would be around 1244 TV lines per picture width, while

the count would be about 933 TV lines per picture width for a 4:3 camera if both had

700 TV lines counting by standard horizontal resolution). DV has a practical recorded

horizontal limit of 540 4:3 TV lines, 1280x720p HD has a practical recorded limit of

720 16:9 TV lines using the standard measurement method)
