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
