JVC launches GY-HM100 and GY-HM700 camcorders in the Middle East
JVC has officially launched its GY-HM100 and GY-HM700 cameras in the Middle East, coinciding with the launch of its product roadshow in Dubai earlier this week.
The Dubai event, which was organised in conjunction with local distributor
Oasis Enterprises, attracted around 35 end users on its first day.
Product manager Semir Nouri, who is also a 17-year JVC veteran, claims the new cameras will help ease the workflow in post production for Final Cut Pro (FCP) users, who can nowimport footage straight into FCPfor immediateediting.
“Since the time we launched the first version of our HD cameras, we realised that customers wanted an easy workflow, where they could shoot, import the file to a desktop and instantly start editing,” Nouri explains. “Editors typically spend several unproductive hours importing files and converting them into a compatible format before they can start editing. And, in many cases, the quality of the footage is lost in the process."
“Our relationship with Apple has helped us make QuickTime one of the standard formats in this camera to support FCP users in the market. We also looked at supporting Avid, Canopus and Adobe editing systems. As a result, we made MPEG-2 the standard encoding technology in these cameras.”
“We have already sold a number of cameras,” Basel Al Aref, general manager - Professional Projects Division for Oasis Enterprisese reveals. “We are confident these models will continue to prove popular despite the recession, mainly because of their versatility.”
