assure

optimum

video

resolution

when

played

back on JVC professional

VTRs.

.Ergonomic

Design

Excellent

ergonomics

was a key

consideration

in the GY-X2BU

design.

The camera

head is designed

to be both

lightweight

and durable.

The body itself

is smoothly

molded

for improved

"feel"

so that the camcorder

becomes

a

natural exten$ion

of the operator's

body.

Weight

is also perfectly

balanced.

Naturally,

all switches

and controls

are

optimally

located

for easy finger-tip

operation.

.ALU

Automatic

Level Up improves

multi-

generation

chroma

signal to noise ratio.

This circuit,

found

only on JVC

professional

VCR's,

records

low level

chroma

signals

at higher

than normal

level. During

playback,

the ACC circuit

compresses

the chroma

back to its

normal

level. Tape noise is also

compressed

by the same amount,

thus

producing

far less chroma

noise.

.Auto

Review

Function

With the Auto Review

function

you can

quickly

review the last two seconds

of

footage

shot. Once the footage

is

played,

the GY-X2BU

then re-enters

the

Record-Pause

mode. There

is also a

handy safety

feature.

To protect

the tape

and video

heads,

the tape is unloaded

and the unit enters

the Stop mode

if the

Insert-Pause

mode

remains

active for

more than 10 minutes.

.Built-in

Speaker

The GY-X2BU

features

an integrated

speaker

to monitor

a~dio and warning

signal during

recording

and review

the

sound-track.

.Optional

Internal

Plug-in

SA-R200U

Time Code

Generator

To boost post-production

efficiency

and

permit

program-logging,

we offer a

plug-in

Time Code Generator

board

(SA-R200U)

as an option.

Using

it you

can record

SMPTE-standard,

LTC or

VITC time code. The board is internally

mounted

to save space and minimize

weight.

The sophisticated

design

means

you can record

additional

data in user

bits with an internal

real-time

clock.

.Insert

Edit Function

The GY-X2BU's

easy-to-use

insert-

recording

capability

allows

previously

recorded

video

and Hi-Fi audio signals

to be accurately

replaced

with new

material.

.Hi-Fi

Stereo

Sound

With its rotary FM hi-fi audio heads,

the

GY-X2BU

delivers

superb

quality

sound

recording.

There

is greater

dynamic

range, enhanced

frequency

response,

and improved

wow and flutter.

It also

includes

two linear audio channels

with

Dolby<11noise reduction.

*Dolby noise reduction manufactured under license

.Full-sized

Drum

with

Two Rotary

Erase

Heads

and Advanced

Editing

Function

(AEF)

Flying Erase Heads plus Advanced

Editing

Function

(AEF) guarantee

professional

quality

in-camera

edits. Two Flying

Erase

Heads also allow insert edit capability

for clean in and out edit points.

The

Advanced

Edit Function

synchronizes

the tape to the incoming

video

during

a

1.5 second

preroll.

This guarantees

field

accurate editing

eliminating

the possibility

of whip edits.

For faster shooting,

0.5

second

preroll

is available.

The full-sized

drum allows for smooth,

stress

free tape

path, minimizing

jitter and eliminating

any possible

tape damage.

.Retake

The Retake

Function

allows you to check

the recorded

picture

without

leaving

the

Record-Pause

mode.

Simply
