JVC GY-HMZ1MP ProHD 3D Camcorder w/Mic
The GY-HMZ1U ProHD 3D Camcorder from JVC makes professional stereoscopic 3D image capture accessible to a broad range of users. Boasting 3D video, 3D still image, and 3D time-lapse recording, the dual-lens, dual-imager HMZ1U plays back glasses-free 3D video on its 3.5" LCD screen. The camera also records high-definition 2D video as AVCHD, so you can use the camera with any of your traditional HD-capable video equipment and workflows.The HMZ1U also includes a handle which also enables the use of professional non-phantom powered microphones with XLR connectors. And especially for this camera, JVC has partnered with Azden to create this special package which includes a stereo shotgun microphone.

Full HD 3D 24-p and 60i Recording in a variety of formats
The GY-HMZ1U delivers 2D or 3D recordings in either 1920x1080 Full HD resolution in a range of formats, including 24p. Compatibility with existing production systems is maintained thanks to JVC's unique L/R Independent format as well as the widely used Side-by-Side format. Supplied software splits the 3D file into separate left and right image files for Non-Linear Editing workflow support.
FALCONBRID Engine
The newly developed FALCONBRID™ high-speed imaging engine makes possible the simultaneous processing of independent left and right Full HD 1920x1080 images at up to 34 Mbps. The single-chip processor is also responsible for calculating the image displacement and adjusting the parallax for accurate and sharp 3D image recording.
JVC 3D Twin HD GT Lens
Designed by JVC and manufactured to strict quality standards, the Twin HD GT Lens features several aspherical lenses and extra-low dispersion glass to minimize chromatic aberration caused by light refraction for sharp, high-contrast images even at the edges of the frame. The result is an industry-leading super bright F1.2 lens that delivers a remarkable level of detail and clarity, resulting in stunning 3D images.
Fully synchronized 5-times optical zoom in 3D mode with Auto Parallax adjustment
The GY-HMZ1U automatically adjusts parallax while zooming keeping a natural look to the scene. This is accomplished by unique JVC algorithm that alters the 3D convergence point according to the distance of the subject from the lens. Manual adjustment is also possible. When recording in the 2D mode, the zoom range is 10:1.
New Automatic Stabilization System
Automatic stabilization corrects the image displacement of the twin lenses and stabilizes the optical axis, resulting in smoother 3D images, even when using the 5x optical zoom.
3D Time-Lapse and Motor Drive recording
The GY-HMZ1U records one frame at a time at set intervals (1sec./10sec./80sec.) for stunning 2D or 3D time lapse video recording. The camera also offers Motor Drive Shooting similar to what's found on Digital SLR cameras. As many as 12 still images are acquired as 3D at approx. 12 frames per second (fps). Enjoy a new world of photography. For or 2D stills&mdashup to 40 images at approx. 12fps.
