Built-in Digital Still Camera Facility
In addition to high-quality motion video, some models also feature a built-in digital still
camera to capture digital still pictures. It takes VGA (640 x 480 pixels) size digital stills
and stores them on the provided MultiMediaCard. You can choose image quality
between Fine and Standard depending on your needs.

DV terminal For Digital-To-Digital Transfer
All models of DVL series are provided with a DV terminal* (i.LINK:
IEEE 1394 compliant) for fast, lossless digital transfer to a computer,
as well as for dubbing to another DV unit in native DV format.
*Input and output for GR-DV557/357/157, output only for GR-DVL555/450/355/150
PC (Serial) Terminal For Easy Still Image Capture
For models not equipped with digital still camera facility, there’s a serial
terminal for direct connection to PCs with serial ports (RS-232C), enabling
you to take advantage of computer-controlled still image capture using the
provided JLIP software without installing an additional board.
Digital NightScope For Extreme Low-Light Shooting
With enhanced low-light sensitivity, JVC’s exclusive Digital NightScope function allows you to
capture clear, bright images at night without loss of colour associated with other night-
shooting systems. Without relying on infrared rays as do similar systems, Digital NightScope
uses the camera’s normal optical system. As a result, the image you shoot is always in
colour, and there’s no limit on shooting range.
