ASIA-PACIFIC BROADCASTING

The multimedia nature of IBC TV News means that a quick shoot-to-edit workflow is essential, which was a key factor in its choice of camera. With a website, video podcasts and mobile content, in addition to the breakfast programmes that are produced each day of the trade show, editing time is always at a premium. The GY-HM100 and GY-HM700 camcorders are recording files directly to solid-state media in the native format used by Apple’s Final Cut Pro and other editing systems, including EVS’ CleanEdit Suite.

Both JVC cameras chosen by IBC TV News benefit from the same simple workflow but differ slightly in their applications. Weighing just three pounds, the JVC GY-HM100 is the smallest, lightest handheld professional HD camcorder in the industry. With selectable data rates up to 35Mbps, it delivers high-quality images, with versatile features more typically found in larger, more expensive cameras. It has a professional 3-CCD format, which is equal with broadcast cameras, and delivers high-bandwidth recordings at 1080p, 1080i and 720p. The GY-HM100 is ideal for budget-conscious applications, or perhaps for use as a secondary camera to complement higher-end equipment.

Meanwhile, the balanced weight distribution of the shoulder-mounted GY-HM700 makes it ideal for those long walks around the show, capturing the latest product news from exhibitors.
