JVC HOSTING 'HD HOUSE' AT SUNDANCE

JVC will conduct demonstrations of its new GY-HD250U and GY-HD200U ProHD camcorders, outfitted with film lenses using its new HZ-CA13U 16mm film lens adapter. The company will also demonstrate various complementary products, including its new DT-V24L1DU flat panel studio monitor.

Director/producer/writer and ProHD camera user Robert Lynn will be on hand to preview his independent horror/thriller, Havoc. Lynn previously used a ProHD camera to shoot Adrenaline, a feature-length action/drama that was produced in one uninterrupted take using just one camera.

In addition to the JVC team, experts on Apple's Final Cut Studio will be on site to offer technical advice and information for cinematographers and editors.
