more info from JVC

JVC's GR-D870 MiniDV Camcorder, the step-up from the D850, provides for those who love the tape format along with giving you still image capture directly to SD/MMC cards (sold separately). If you want to capture stills while recording video you can utilize Panasonic's Dual Record mode for simultaneous video and still capture. Another defining feature of the 870, Live Slow, lets you record video in slow motion with real time audio.

Looking at the basic functions of the camera, the 870 has a 1/6" CCD image sensor, 2.7" wide LCD screen, and 35x optical zoom. An Auto Illumination light gives low-lit scenes more pop while the Data Battery lets you know how much time is left before needing to change batteries. The camera also features an Auto LCD Backlight, a Stick Control for one-finger management of menus and manual settings, and 3-Dimension Noise Reduction, among many other great features.

• 1/6" CCD Image Sensor: 1/6" CCD image sensor in this camcorder captures stunning video and stills each and every time you shoot

• Record to MiniDV: Record all of your favorite memories to the tried and true MiniDV format, known for its clarity and image quality

• Digital Still Capture: Capture stills images directly to SD/MMC memory cards with the GR-D870. You can even record simultaneous video and still images with JVC's Dual Record mode

• Dual Record Mode: Capture video and still simultaneously with the Dual Record Mode

• Data Button/Auto Button: The Data Button lets you know how much life is left in your battery with just one touch while the Auto Button allows you to switch between manual and auto modes

• 35x Optical Zoom: The 35x optical zoom provides accurate and crisp close ups with no loss of image quality

• Auto LCD Backlight Control: Even when you're shooting outside you can see the image on the LCD screen bright and clear. The Auto LCD Backlight Control adjusts the screen to your situation for an image that's easy to see, indoors and out

• 3-Dimension Noise Reduction: 3-Dimension Noise Reduction compares scenes that are next to each other and as a result reduces image noise and improves color

• 2.7" Wide Clear LCD Display: The 2.7" Wide Clear LCD display gives you a 16:9 view of what you're recording for more accurate composing, equaling no surprises on play back

• Live Slow: Use the Live Slow function to playback images in slow motion with real time sound for a professional and creative way to make a special moment stand out

• SD/MMC Card Slot: Record still images to SD/MMC cards (sold separately) at 640 x 480

• Stick Control: The Stick Control allows you to navigate the camera's menus and manual functions during playback and record with just one-finger

• Auto Illumination Light: Use the Auto Illumination light in low-light situations when extra light is needed on your subject

• Data Battery: The Data Battery prevents disaster by letting you check the remaining battery time with a touch of the Data Button. Never run out of battery power in the middle of a once in a lifetime moment again

• Power Linked Operation: Power Linked Operation automatically turns the camera on when the LCD screen is opened and turns it off when the LCD is closed. This feature saves energy and reduces start-up time for a more efficient, responsive camcorder
