Various posts concerning GR-HD1U and JY-HD10U

Luis Otero · September 1st, 2005, 06:56 PM

Hello,

A friend of mine is experiencing an unusual problem that I have not been able to help him. He has, as well as myself, an JY-HD10U and sudenly he is not able to record any image in any mode (DV, SD, HD or still), but there is no problem with recording audio or even the color bars when selected on the menue. It seems to me that basically the iris is stuck for whatever reason.

We have tried to get any troubleshooting information from the JVC website, without any success. Have any on you experience the same? Is there any "easy" way to try to open the iris either via any menu command or manually? He has a project comming up very soon and he will not be able to send the camera for factory repair. Again, there is no problem with recording audio or color bars, or even playing back previously recorded maerial.

Thanks for your help,

Luis

I've been getting tons of "Stream Error Detected" while batch capturing in FCP5~~~FCP suggests the tape media may be the culprit:

What tape brands are you using with your HD1 & HD10U successfully?
List any problems you may have noticed with certain tapes.
Thanks for the participation.

Sony DVM60ME (Red/Black): Stream Errors

Ken Hodson · October 6th, 2005, 12:52 PM

Panasonic MiniDV Master. AY-DVM63MQ. No problems. Only tape used in cam.

I too have experienced the stuck shutter! I have one cam which I cannot use and one that when I set down the tripod I saw the image blink in the viewfinder s I watched the shot. So .. I surmise, gravity can override the spring on the "top" (?) blade? I'm gonna try some light impact in reverse and see if I can free it up.

Short of that It's to the hole of JVC service!
Aaaahhhhhhhhh!

Hey,

I just got a glidecam v20 (used) that I want to use for my HD100U, however, there is not connecting quick release to mount the camera on the Glidecam plate so I need to get a piece that would connect the Camera bottom to the Glidecam plate. Such as a quick relase. Just not sure which one I need and is best for what I need. I believ its two peices. One to screw on the plate and another for the camera bottom so you can easily release the camera from the Glidecam.

Hope it makes sense. I am new to this so please bare with me.

On the Windows Media site a while ago, there was some really good HD1 footage of Seattle and It seems to have disappeared from the microsoft site. can anyone who downloaded it give me a link so I can download it again?

Edit: Never mind, I've found the lost file!

I sent our HD10s to JVC Factory in Mid Dec. Got 'em back on Jan 4. Image sensor replaced, new firmware. I was surprised as soooo many bemoan their service. While it is true that you NEVER get return E-Mail ... The phones (is this 2006?) actually work and all it cost me was postage to NJ! JVC rocks for me!

I read this article provided by another poster, and came across these coments. I haven't heard these issues mentioned befor, and truthfully I am not sure what they are exactly. Can any one explain and or verify them to me?

"Two years ago I looked at the single-chip JVC HD10 HDV camera. We tested it and found that it had unacceptable horizontal motion issues, including a bad strobing on the side plates."

Ken Hodson · January 25th, 2006, 08:33 PM

Good job Daniel. You managed to keep the lighting and look of the film fairly consistant throughout. No easy task! Keep up the good work.

Graham Hickling · January 25th, 2006, 08:40 PM

"...bad strobing on the side plates..."

Like that wedding I was at in the late 80s!

But seriously, I've seen that statement too and wondered what the heck they were on about?

Dave Ferdinand · January 25th, 2006, 09:35 PM

More bad mouthing on the HD10. I never heard of this and never witnessed anything resembling the description. Maybe they were unfortunate and got a camera that was defective.

You gotta love those colors. But the compression makes everything look very jittery.
