Live streaming is possible in HD or lower resolutions, depending on available bandwidth.

Integrated 12x Ultra HD lens, 1/2.3-inch CMOS sensor
Ultra high quality imagery begins with a precision 12x F1.2-3.5 optical zoom lens (35mm equivalent: 29.6–355mm). JVC's 4K CMOS sensor with 12.4M pixels delivers high sensitivity and excellent performance over a wide range of lighting conditions, the company reports, while details are reported to be crisp and accurate throughout the entire image plane.
Dynamic Zoom for lossless 24x zoom
When shooting in the HD mode, Dynamic Zoom combines optical zoom and pixel mapping to create seamless and lossless 24x zoom. This allows the camera to have a long zoom range while retaining its small form factor. Shooters will also appreciate the convenient ND filter wheel: 0, 1/4th and 1/16th positions.
