What with everyone having a 4 M TV and / orprojectorat household these days , it make sense that tv camera manufacturers would go rolling out new example capture footage at a resplendent resolution of 3840×2160 …

But yeah , I ’m not exactly sure why LG decided to release a prosumer 4 K digital video recording tv camera , besides being able to declare “ first ! ” at CES this year . At this point the only consumers who would be concerned in being able-bodied to becharm 4 K would be amateur filmmakers lack the budgets to buy a RED or other professional digital cinema camera . So JVC ’s 4 KB camera will be priced at just $ 5,000 when it exit on sale in March , which is actually improbably cheap for what it ’s take to be able of .
With supported framerates of 24P , 50P , and 60P ( not sure why 30P was go away out of the company ) the excitedly named GY - HMQ10 was actually kind of hard to get excited over while I played with it . While digital picture palace offerings from Sony and Panavision look like the gravid film cameras you see on the set of feature films , JVC ’s 4 K option is designed to be handheld , so it basically calculate like every other prosumer picture camera . And preserve for the ability to dial in a specific craw factor for the live prevue LCD , it jolly much functions like them too .
If you happen to be one of the golden few with access to a 4 M display , you ’ll be happy to hear the photographic camera can output a unrecorded 4 K preview in real - time . Making it useful for cinematographer or other professional who need to see as much detail as they can . But sadly it seems like JVC was n’t one of those lucky few to have a 4 K display set up at their in - booth studio , so I was n’t capable to really see what kind of images the camera can produce . ( Its flip out LCD video display is n’t 4 K either . )
And while productions might not yet have the hardware to display a 4 K picture , thanks to MPEG-4 densification techniques the camera can really squeeze about two hours of 4 K footage onto an “ economical SDHC or SDXC memory cards ” as JVC put it . So you probably do n’t require a monstrously hefty PC to edit and serve the footage it register . But even that is n’t going to help speed up the adoption of 4 M which does n’t really seem to be in much need here at the Consumer Electronics Show . [ JVC ]
