MOD at a glance

MOD

MOD appeared with JVC's first Everio hard-disk camcorders around 2003, recording standard-definition MPEG-2 video in program stream containers as a pragmatic bridge between the DV tape era and later AVCHD adoption.

3FR at a glance

3FR

Hasselblad raw workflows are closely tied to medium-format capture and to the brand's studio and commercial-photography lineage, which gives 3FR a different practical role from mass-market DSLR raw families.
