The Fujinon HTS18x4.2BRM-M is a 1/3" lens with 18x optical zoom and is
built specifically for JVC's line of prosumer HDV camcorders. Known for
their high build quality and precision optics, Fujinon lenses have
become the industry standard for professional video applications all
over the world. This lens not only resolves images for high-definition
acquisition, it's also equipped with a wide array of extra features such
as QuickZoom technology. Quickzoom makes it easy to verify focus by
allowing instant telephoto zoom capability.
High Definition Ready Many
high-definition cameras are hamstrung by insufficient optics.
Electronic News Gathering (ENG) lenses traditionally have been built to
accommodate standard-definition. This lens is designed specifically with
high-definition in mind. The optics increase fidelity, making sure HD
footage is crystal clear.
QuickZoom Technology The
lens has an added zoom capability when using the QuickZoom switch. At
the touch of a button, the lens can move to full telephoto in less than a
second. This provides a no-hassle way of verifying focus.
Internal Focus The
lens element design fitted for the internal focus mechanism greatly
reduces aberrations and image distortions. These advances contribute to
more balanced imaging from center to edge throughout the aperture range.
VFormat Correction Achieving 4:3 aspect ratios from
a 16:9 CCD is usually performed by cutting off the sides of the imager,
effectively making the minimum focal length more telephoto. Fujinon's
VFormat technology preserves the same picture angles by shortening the
original focal length. Shots in standard 4:3 hold the same image size as
if shot in 16:9.
