Outstanding Camera Features

  • NDI|HX Mode Selection:
    • The NDI|HX live video source capability is a mode of operation in addition to the existing output formats of the camcorder. The modification adds the NDI|HX mode to the Recording Format System selection of the camcorder. Selecting NDI|HX sets the camera to operate solely as a live video source (Note: Camera does not record in NDI|HX mode).
    • Features available in the NDI|HX mode include automatic camera discovery on the LAN by supported hardware and software, tally support, and IP remote control capability.
  • NDI|HX Modification for Current GY-HC500 Series: Current owners of the GY-HC500U, GY-HC550U, and GY-HC500SPCU will be able to have their camcorders modified to incorporate the new NDI|HX features through JVC. Please contact JVC Professional Support at 800-582-5825 for assistance.
  • 1" CMOS 4K Image Sensor: The GY-HC550 features a 1-inch CMOS 4K image sensor for uncompromised cinema and video production. This large sensor delivers a superior dynamic range, high S/N ratio and high sensitivity (F11 at 2000lx), contributing artistic visual expression including shallow depth of field 'bokeh' capability.
  • 20x Optical/40x Dynamic Zoom Lens with Manual Functions: The GY-HC550 is equipped with a newly developed wide-angle 20x optical zoom lens to offer optimal magnification for shooting. When shooting in HD mode, Dynamic Zoom combines optical zoom and pixel mapping from a 4K image sensor to create seamless and lossless 40x zoom. Take total control of the scene with triple large rings for zoom, focus, and iris for smooth shooting. Other features include an optical image stabilizer and chromatic aberration correction.

Top-Tier Sports Coaching Technologies

Seamless Interface with Catapult Sports Thunder HD and DVSport: The integrated combination of JVC, Catapult Sports, and DVSport technologies enables sports organizations to add game play metadata with recordings from various camera angles- all synchronized with a single UTC time signal thus significantly reducing the time uploading practice and game footage. Catapult Sports and DVSport are the leading providers of digital coaching technology.

Exchange Format: The Sports Video Interoperability Group made "Exchange Format 1080p/720p" that allows video and metadata to be used across different applications.

Advanced Camera Features

  • SRT: QoS (Quality of Service) Technology
    • SRT logoSRT (Secure Reliable Transport) is an open-source video transport protocol that enables the delivery of high-quality and secure, low-latency video across the public Internet. SRT optimizes streaming performance across unpredictable networks with secure streams and easy firewall traversal, bringing the best quality live video over the worst networks. It accounts for packet loss, jitter, and fluctuating bandwidth, maintaining the integrity and quality of your video.
    • SRT provides end-to-end security, resiliency, and dynamic endpoint adjustment based on real-time network conditions to deliver the best video quality at all times on any network.
    • SRT is built-in and can be dynamically adjusted for optimal stream performance and quality. Automatic Repeat Request (ARQ) is included with SRT. End-to-end 128/256-bit AES encryption makes sure your content is protected from contribution to distribution.
  • Clip Continuous Recording: This function enables you to store a number of shots together as a single clip file. Instead of having to manage enormous amounts of files, or browsing through dozens of separate files just to gather up the scene you need, you can use pre- grouped clips for easier transfer and editing.
