Product Information

The JVC GZ-HD3 Camcorder enables you to shoot in full 1920 x 1080 HD to an internal 60GB hard drive, providing the clearest video when viewed on your HDTV. The internal hard drive provides a tape free format with an SD/SDHC expansion memory card slot, in case you need more room to record or to capture still images. Combine this with the compact, modern design of the HD3 and you have a camcorder that not only captures excellent images but can go anywhere you go, without being conspicuous or cumbersome.

The GZ-HD3 comes with a 2.8" Clear LCD display, 10x optical zoom, and three 1/5" CCD image sensors. A Konica Minolta HD lens provides strong, clear images every time you shoot. The Auto Illumi. Light function assists you by automatically turning on when shooting in low-light situations. The Power-Linked operation makes sure you get every shot by automatically turning the camera on as soon as the LCD screen is opened, and saves battery power by turning off as soon as the LCD screen is closed.

Features

• Konica Minolta HD Lens

The Konica Minolta HD Lens for the GZ-HD3 provides the best performance for the 3-CCD sensor. Clear, beautiful images are the result with this made for HD lens.

• Portability

The compact design of the GZ-HD3 allows you to take this camcorder anywhere you go. Weighing only 1.5 lbs the camcorder fits in a pocket or small bag - you'll forget it's even there.

• Auto Illumi. Light

The built-in light on the GZ-HD3 automatically comes on when you're shooting in a low-light situation.

• Power-Linked Operation

In an effort to get the shot and save your battery power, JVC designed the GZ-HD3 so that it automatically turns on when the LCD screen is opened and turns off as soon as it's closed.

• Data Battery

You can check on the amount of battery power you have left as well as the camera's recording time with this function, available with JVC Data batteries only.

• Pixel Shift Technology

By dedicating each of the 3 CCD Sensors to pick up red, green, and blue when shooting the GZ-HD3 provides you with natural color rendition. Pixel Shift Technology shifts the red and blue pixel locations relative to green, quadrupling the color information via interpolation.
