camcorder for production that offers uncompromised
image quality. Shoot 4K UHD with HDR, J-Log 1, and
record to SSD (solid state drive) media in 10-bit
Apple ProRes 422 at 4K UHD up to 60p/50p frame
rates. You can also record UHD 30p/25p/24p, full HD
or proxy files to SDHC/SDXC media.
The
GY-HC500 CONNECTED CAM features high performance FHD
live streaming with low latency and a full
complement of IP remote control and viewing
features. It’s truly the most advanced and versatile

4K UHD
60p/50p Apple ProRes 422 10-bit Recording
The JVC GY-HC500E can record in Apple ProRes 422 for
attention-grabbing 4K 60p/50p image creation. Apple
ProRes 422 HQ offers virtually lossless intra-frame
compression, which speeding up post-production.
Footage is recorded in native file formats that are
understood by most major editing applications
without transcoding.
This is helpful for
efficient workflow of editing and post process. The
4:2:2 format also provides richer color information
and 10-bit recording delivers rich gradations—a
definite advantage for grading work after recording.
High-Speed Recording for 1080p Slow
Motion Playback High-speed recording
(1920×1080) at up to 120fps (59.94Hz)/100fps (50Hz)
is available for smooth slow motion playback (up to
1/5 slow at 24p mode). It helps create artistic
effects and lets you watch replays to examine
sporting skills.
SSD Enables Extended
Time 4K UHD 60p/50p Shooting
Large-capacity, readily-available SSDs (2.5″, M.2
SATA) are compatible, so extendedtime 4K UHD up to
60p/50p video recording is possible. Just plug it
into the camera’s extended slot (using the optional
SSD adapter KA-MC100G). SSD media delivers excellent
sequential read speed to tackle professional
workload. Highspeed transfer of huge amounts of
recorded footage is possible.
Various
Codecs and Recording Formats High-speed
recording (1920×1080) at up to 120fps
(59.94Hz)/100fps (50Hz) is available for smooth slow
motion playback (up to 1/5 slow at 24p mode). It
helps create artistic effects and lets you watch
replays to examine sporting skills
1″
CMOS 4K Image Sensor JVC GY-HC500E
features a 1-inch CMOS 4K image for uncompromised
cinema and video production. This large sensor
delivers a superior dynamic range, high S/N ratio
and high sensitivity (F11 at 2000lx), contributing
artistic visual expression including shallow depth
of field ’bokeh’ capability.
20x
Optical/40x Dynamic Zoom Lens with Manual Functions
JVC GY-HC500E is equipped with a newly developed
wide-angle 20x optical zoom lens to offer optimal
magnification for shooting. When shooting in HD
mode, Dynamic Zoom combines optical zoom and pixel
mapping from a 4K image sensor to create seamless
and lossless 40x zoom.
Take total control of
the scene with triple large rings for zoom, focus,
and iris for smooth shooting. Other features include
an optical image stabilizer and chromatic aberration
correction.
Robust Body and Excellent
in Weather Resistance Its robust body
makes the JVC GY-HC500 ready to work in harsh
environments and situations. Excellent construction
in weather resistance enables image gathering in the
field with confidence.
