Product Overview
Offering integrated graphics and live streaming capability, the GY-HM250U from JVC is a full-featured 4K Ultra HD camcorder that’s small and light enough to take everywhere and capable of providing the quality you need. Designed for enhanced single-camera production, the GY-HM250U offers lower-third and full-screen titling solutions for recorded or streamed video output without an external CG or production switcher.
Lower-third graphic overlays are generated and controlled using a browser-equipped device, such as a tablet or smartphone. JVC also provides a software utility that lets customers upload logos or icons that are displayed in the lower-third of the recorded video. Full-screen graphics can be advanced manually or presented as a slideshow during extended breaks in the action with user-defined timing. Users can store up to 50 .JPG or .PNG graphics, such as team logos or religious icons, in the camera. Worship facilities, for example, can display scripture readings or lyrics, with the operator manually advancing graphics during the service.
The GY-HM250U also features built-in streaming with Wi-Fi and 4G LTE connectivity that provides live access to CDNs like Facebook Live and YouTube. The camera also works as part of JVC’s S.L.I.M. studio camera system, an affordable approach to multi-camera production that uses the RM LP100 remote camera control as a CCU for JVC IP-capable cameras.
Other highlights include 4:2:2 recording for 4K/30p and 4K/24p, as well as 4K/60p HDMI output. The tele macro shooting mode on the GY HM250U provides better focus on close objects than previous models, while the Zero Config function provides automatic, one-click configuration of the camera when it joins the same LAN as other cameras.
And with two SDHC/SDXC slots, you can record hours of 4K/UHD (3840x2160) 4:2:2 material or 4:2:2 HD signals at up to 50Mbps. If you need to “go live” right now, you can have the GY-HM250 stream live HD footage over the Internet. Whether you want to fully customize your settings, or leave it to Full Auto and simply concentrate on the subject, count on the compact camcorder that puts professional quality in the palm of your hand.
