seconds; in the 50Hz modes, the cache is 3.0 seconds. When Pre
Rec is activated, a "P" will be displayed in the viewfinder and on
the LCD monitor.
Continuous Clip Mode
In this mode, the GY-HM700 creates a single clip file from
multiple trigger presses. This is ideal when "in camera editing"
is preferred. The complete shot sequence is instantly available as
a single clip. When recording in the Continuous Clip Mode, time
code can be either free run or in the REC mode.
JVC Original 35Mbps MPEG2 Encoder
Drawing from its experience in developing rack mount encoders
used by major television stations, JVC developed a proprietary
codec capable of providing highly efficient compression up to 35
megabits per second, a bitrate that can support full 1920 x 1080
sampling. This results in recorded images of
35
exceptional quality. MPEG2 long GOP is the
most widely accepted broadcast standard
compression supported by all popular editing
systems and broadcast servers. In the HQ
mode, the encoder operates with a variable bit
Mbps
rate average of 35Mbps. The SP mode records
at a constant bit rate of either 19.7Mbps or
25Mbps to ensure compatibility with a wide range of equipment.
The GY-HM700 supports all major HD signal formats including
1920 x 1080, 1440 x 1080 and 1280 x 720.

Variable Frame Rate Recording
(Over crank, Under crank)
When recording in the 720p 35Mbps mode, the camera can be
set to record at a frame rate different that the playback rate. This
capability makes it possible to record slow or fast motion when the
recording is played back at 24p or 30p.
Operability
Compact Shoulder Form Factor
Weighing only 8 lbs including lens, viewfinder, microphone and
battery, the GY-HM700 rests comfortably on the right shoulder
providing stable, steady shots. Unlike some oversized hand held

with them. The handle

cold weather.
