Sorry Sony, the newest HDV camcorder was announced at a very limited attendance special insiders meeting at JVC's west coast corporate offices on Wednesday March 9 at 12noon in which the HDV TEKTEAM from Hollywood Studio Rentals was in attendance. The new model (which are only able to describe - can't show you the pictures due to contractual this and that) is called the GY-HD100 and it blows away the new HDR and HVR camcorders. Simply described, the new HD100 is a 1/3in detatchable 3CCD camcorder with dual +48v XLR connectors, Hi-Res viewfinder, REAL 24P, 30P and 30I, fold out LCD, uses regular and high grade minidv tape and more. Sleek style and very well balanced. We will posting all the tech and (when we get permission) the pictures they allowed us to take at www.hollywoodstudiorentals.com bulletin board. This is the first announcement of the new camcorder in the world. Pricing under $10k. It is a 720P unit, and has Anton/Bauer battery options in a very small form factor. Kinda like what Canon was supposed to do with the XL-2 but didn't. Whether you love or hate JVC - the new standard is here. To be shown at NAB and available in June. Simply the best HDV camcorder ever built.
