JVC MG-255 Camcorder
US Market Only
Camera Available Only in NTSC Format
Capture an entire day's diving without changing tapes or batteries. The new JVC MG-255 Camcorder features a built-in 30GB hard drive that easily stores 7+ hours of better-than-DVD quality recording or up to 10,000 digital still images. The included super high-capacity battery also lives up to the challenge, providing over 3 1/2 hours of recording on a single full charge. Just install the camera in the housing and go dive!
The MG-255 is equipped with a 2.18 megapixel CCD (1/3.9"), and utilizes JVC's Gigabrid Imaging Engine to process video and still images separately. This provides optimal processing for each to produce both high quality video and high resolution still images.
Video recordings are stored as video files, so deleting unwanted video is as easy as "throwing it in the trash". Create a video without a PC with in-camera editing features and direct DVD button (requires Share Station DVD Burner, not included). One-touch direct backup button automatically transfers any video or stills that are not already stored on your computer's hard drive. |
