The new Everio X is designed to maximise every precious moment with Full HD 1920x1080 video or 9 Megapixel digital still images. Creative shooting functions such as ultra-slow motion video and high-speed "motor drive" still photography will expand your horizon. And all this, in a single pocket-sized camera.
Slim, Streamlined Design and a Lightweight Body
The design of Everio X is a distinct departure from other camcorders, including other Everio models. Not much larger than a smart phone, Everio X is a slab-sided rectangle without the handgrip, protrusions or indentations found on most camcorders. The design allows plenty of flexibility in how the camera is held — from below, above, or whatever suits the situation and the user's preference.
High Quality: Real 9 Megapixel Stills and Full HD Video
World's First 10.3 Mega CMOS Sensor
At the heart of the camera's superior image quality is a 1/2.33-inch 10.3 Megapixel CMOS sensor — the world's first to be used in a Full HD AVCHD camera*. The high quality 9 Megapixel digital stills the camera shoots correlate directly to the un-interpolated performance of this CMOS sensor and Bayer array RGB colour filter.
* As of March, 2009
Sample Pictures
Full HD 1920x1080 Video with 1000 TV Lines of Horizontal Resolution
For the first time ever, this 10.3 Megapixel CMOS sensor is the source of 1920x1080/50i Full HD AVCHD format video. The camera records at a stunning 1000 TV lines of horizontal resolution — the theoretical maximum level of 1920x1080 Full HD.
High Speed: Continuous Still Shots and Ultra-Slow Motion Video
50fps/5.3 Megapixel Motor Drive Shooting
Everio X offers high-speed shooting, similar to the motor drive function found in some mechanical still cameras. Up to eleven 5.3 Megapixel stills can be shot at 50 frames per second (fps). A great way to capture fast-paced action in high quality digital still images.

For continuous stills with even higher image quality, you can also shoot as many as six non-interpolated 9 Megapixel stills at up to 15 frames per second (fps), a speed that rivals or surpasses what's offered by typical 9 Megapixel DSLR cameras.

High-Speed Recording (up to 500fps) for Ultra-Slow Motion Playback
The camera's high-speed recording function shoots ultra-slow motion video to capture dynamic movement that is not visible to the naked eye. Any one of three speeds — 100 frames per second (fps), 250fps and 500fps — can be selected; the faster the recording speed, the slower the playback motion. With this function, approximately 2.8-second bursts of video are recorded that are then played back over a period of up to 28 seconds, providing an effective tool for sports technique analysis and nature studies.

Newly Developed O.I.S. Camera Shake Compensation
JVC's new proprietary optical image stabilisation (OIS) system applies camera shake compensation optically using prism technology at the lens entrance to ensure effectiveness throughout the zoom range and allow high quality shooting without a tripod.
Dual Mode: 5.3 Megapixel Stills While Recording Full HD Video
Everio X also allows shooting of 1920x1080/50i Full HD video and 5.3 Megapixel stills at the same time — a unique advantage of this all-in-one camera. This way, you won't have to exit the Video mode each time you want to take a still image, thereby minimizing the chances of a missed shot.
