Continued from last week, we have Mr. Kunio Otsuka's interview of developing the world's first camcorder with built-in Bluetooth Wireless technology. Last time we introduced the basic specification of Bluetooth technology and also the background of equipping it. This week is about after the actual GZ-HM550's development began.

In 2010, JVC released a world first camcorder with built-in Bluetooth Wireless Technology, GZ-HM550. After the announcement at CES in last January, GZ-HM550 is posted in the Internet, magazines and other media with expectations. However, don't you think that the word "Bluetooth" is consistently heard in this few years?

For the last three weeks, we posted the first series of Everio Video Hunters! We hope you enjoyed it. At that time GZ-HM400 was our top model in the lineup. Thanks to the 10.3M CMOS sensor, picture quality of GZ-HM400 was stunning. It was able to shoot and show all the details. GZ-HM400 was a camera who wants to shoot seriously with the pro-style operation.

We just received a great report from Germany.

The new JVC Full HD Camcorder GZ-HM400 was tested in several German reviewer magazines. It received very good results and is seen as a top class camcorder due to its wide range of functions and its user friendly operation. The perfect sharpness of the pictures is pointed out and because of its excellent price-performance ratio it received not only good results but also several awards.
