I'm not familiar with new HDV camera and the HD world... but i'm little bit confuse to understand if the JVC's GY-HD100u really got HD output. When i'm reading spec. of this camera, it doesnt mention any HD/SD-SDI output (as mention with the Canon XL-H1 perhaps). But when i'm reading on the Wafian web site (http://www.cineform.com/products/WafianHR1.htm#HD100U_Support), its says that the JVC is HD ouput... i'm more confuse...

Whats going on ?

thanks again

i think you can get HD through the component out.

i think there's a component to sdi adaptor or you can go directly though component out.

SDI - is just an digital interface. Yes the JVC HD100U has HD output from the Component out. (In fact it's 4:2:2). The difference is that it's Analog Component not not SDI.

Besides the component output, you can also use the IEEE1394 output, with switch in HDV position.
