DETAILS

PROGRESSIVE Full HD 1920×1080/50p
IMAGE WITH 36Mbps PROCESSING

Procision GC-PX100 records video at Full HD 1920×1080, but that's just part of the story. Progressive video means that each individual frame is a complete, high-resolution picture unlike interlace. And to ensure maximum quality down to each pixel, Procision uses extremely fast 36Mbps image processing for precise image capture based on larger amounts of visual information. The result is sharply reproduced images at any speed, unlike what you'd expect from a conventional handheld camcorder. What's more, you can even take 2.1M still images while recording video.

MULTI CODEC READY WITH AVCHD, MPEG-4 AND MOV SUPPORT

Procision GC-PX100 allows you to record in AVCHD 2.0-compliant video, as well as MPEG-4 and .MOV formats, including iFrame compatible 720p. This selection virtually assures compatibility with your preferred codec, in a variety of usage and workflow scenarios. Although not very prevalent, JVC provides .MOV format recording for highest quality in certain post-production usages as its audio is recorded in non-compressed Linear PCM.

BRIGHT AND FAST F1.2 GT LENS
FOR SUPER LOLUX PERFORMANCE

The "eye" of the Procision GC-PX100 is an extremely bright F1.2 lens featuring high quality GT optics developed for maximum affinity with the CMOS image sensor. The ample aperture takes in plenty of light to maintain a bright image even when shooting in indoor situations where ambient lighting is not ideal.

1/2.3" 12.8M BACK-ILLUMINATED CMOS SENSOR

Procision GC-PX100 uses a 1/2.3" 12.8 Megapixel Back-illuminated CMOS sensor — a type of CMOS that effectively avoids the loss of incoming light because its circuitry is moved to a layer behind the photo diodes. This increased visual information is captured by 12.8M-pixels to provide a high-quality, high-resolution picture filled with presence and detail, making it an ideal image source for a variety of applications.

10× OPTICAL ZOOM WITH OPTICAL IMAGE STABILISER

Zoom in for close-ups with full optical quality maintained. Get tight shots without any sacrifice in Full HD resolution. And in instances where extra zoom power is needed, Procision GC-PX100 can magnify up to 19x at 720p resolution using Dynamic Zoom technology. And to avoid a jittery picture even when your hand isn't absolutely steady, GC-PX100 offers Optical Image Stabiliser (O.I.S.) to provide effective results over the entire zoom range.

HIGH-SPEED RECORDING FOR A VARIETY OF SITUATIONS

Procision GC-PX100 gives you the ability to shoot high-speed video for slow motion viewing. Choose from 100fps, 200fps and 250fps at 640 x 360 resolution, as well as 400fps and 500fps at 320 x 176 resolution. When shooting sports or other active scenes, you can select the appropriate speed to allow for later analysis.

TIME CONTROL TO FLEXIBLY CAPTURE ANY SCENE

Procision GC-PX100 is equipped with a Time Control Function that lets you flexibly select and change the recording speed by turning a single dial next to the lens. With easy access, you can go from high-speed at 500 frames per second (fps), to Time-Lapse at 1 frame per 80 seconds. You get total control over the time factor, and best of all, it's so easy and intuitive you'll master it in no time.

Since settings can be changed with intuitive controls, you will never miss that important moment.

ZOOM POSITION MEMORY FOR QUICKLY
OPTIMIZED FRAMING

Instantly zooming in to full telephoto, zooming out to full wide, or zooming to an intermediate position you've preset for the camera, is as easy as tapping 1, 2 or 3 on the LCD screen. With speed and precision, you can zoom from a full field view, to just the action on the front line, then to a tight shot of a goal being scored.

FILE TRANSFER VIA WI-FI FOR TABLET PLAYBACK

Procision GC-PX100 is equipped with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, so you can wirelessly transfer video data to a tablet device for in-hand viewing. That means you can leave the camcorder in a fixed position such as mounted on a tripod while reviewing the footage on a large screen. Thanks to the free app "JVC CAM Coach", you can look over the results in the field, and discuss your findings with your team immediately and effectively.

CLEAR AND SMOOTH SLOW MOTION PLAYBACK

Since Procision GC-PX100 records progressive video at a high data rate of 36Mbps, each individual frame is a high quality still picture. Compared to ordinary slows, the motion is smooth and fluid, and the images are blur free to facilitate analysis. This can be an invaluable tool in spotting minute errors in an athlete's form, and can help everyone from the promising novice to the star player to improve their game.

TAGGING FUNCTION FOR QUICK RETURN TO IMPORTANT SCENES

EXTRACT 9 CONSECUTIVE STILLS FROM VIDEO

Procision GC-PX100 lets you grab bursts of 9 still images from video at the touch of a button, similar to the motor drive on an SLR still camera. These can be output in the form of 9 individual full-size images, or a single image containing 9 index photos in it, so you can choose the style that best suits your needs.
