changed smoothly during recording,
making professional operation really
easy.

to carry — and also makes it simple to shoot from low angles,
thanks to its built-in REC button with lock function, and zoom
lever. 2ch XLR audio inputs
are provided for the
attachment of a professional
microphone or for LINE input,
complete with Phantom
power supply capability.
Heavy-duty Handle Unit with Various Controls
For more advanced visual expressions, detailed image settings
such as gamma and color shade can be customized. All those
customized settings are stored on the SD card, and can be
called up whenever necessary. If speed is your maximum
Fully Customizable Settings and Full Auto Simplicity
concern, you can always go with Full Auto operation or
engage Auto partially for certain functions. Reliable shooting
is assured even in Auto mode.

Dual SDHC/SDXC Card Slots for Maximum Versatility
• Series (relay) recording mode:
Continuous recording card by card.
• Dual (simultaneous) recording mode:
Recording to 2 cards at
same format for backup or multi-purpose.
• Backup recording mode:
While the Rec trigger
is used to REC and STOP recording on one card,
the other card can act as a continuous backup that
overrides the pause function.* This is a unique
mode highly demanded by theatrical and bridal
camera crews.
*During simultaneous backup recording in HD mode, the
duplicate file records in the same file format and bit rate as the original.
Dual SDHC/SDXC card slots make the GY-HM250 a truly versatile camcorder, offering such benefits as series recording,
dual recording, and backup recording modes using reliable and cost-effective media.
