Canon 41x Advanced Zoom |
|
| The name Canon is synonymous with optical excellence. All over the world, consumers hear Canon and think quality. The Canon 41x Advanced Zoom on the ZR900 is just the kind of exclusive Canon feature you've come to expect from the leader in imaging and optics. Advanced Zoom extends the power of the 900's already estimable 37x optical zoom. In both wide angle and telephoto positions, there is virtually no loss in image quality throughout the entire range. How is this accomplished? A genuine Canon lens remains in constant motion through the entire extended zoom range aided by our proprietary DIGIC DV image processor. The ZR900 offers more flexibility to get just the shot you want by giving you the choice of Advanced Zoom, 37x Optical Zoom, or 2000x Digital Zoom. You will always be able to get your shot, no matter how close or far away. What's more, you can always rely on the quality you get from Canon. |

Canon: keeping it simple when simple will do |
|

Extra buttons have been eliminated, allowing you to access many functions from one convenient place. The Joystick lets you control Play, Stop, Fast-Forward, and Rewind functions during playback. It also controls exposure lock and exposure compensation. Also, an easy-to-read menu system makes the ZR900 a breeze to operate. For the ultimate in stress-free shooting, there's the Easy Mode. In this setting, your ZR900 will automatically choose the focus, exposure, and any other available parameters to ensure that whatever you're recording comes out looking great.

Widescreen HR Recording |
|
The ZR900 records true High Resolution Widescreen video that looks spectacular on your widescreen TV. Canon's Widescreen HR uses the entire width of the image sensor, capturing a big picture in true widescreen. So, why is the way you record widescreen images so important? Because you, friend, want an image made for widescreen, not adapted for widescreen. Because every HD television is widescreen — widescreen is the future — and the future is here.
The explanation of how Canon does it may be a bit technical, but the result is clear to see. Canon camcorders use the entire width of the image sensor to capture video in true 16:9 format. What difference does this make? It's simple. With more pixels captured, you get better image quality. Some camcorders force the wider picture into a smaller space on the sensor — giving you a less true image, with fewer pixels and lower quality.
In addition, the large 2.7" LCD screen and 0.35" color viewfinder on your ZR900 display your widescreen image in a letterbox view and makes it easier to see all that you're shooting. From side to side and top to bottom, what you see is what you get. Either way, there isn't the guessing or extra work in looking at an image that's distorted like a fun house mirror. And really, why wouldn't you want to shoot your video images in a format that matches their final destination — your widescreen TV? |

Get connected: share your videos with friends |
|
| The ZR900 comes with an array of features that make it easy to share your videos. Just connect your computer to your camcorder's IEEE1394 DV terminal with a DV cable. Also known as Firewire or iLink, this high-speed interface lets you download your precious video footage with virtually no loss of video or audio quality. Your favorite recorded moments retain their pristine image and sound for everybody to enjoy. |

More perks |
|
| The new ZR line of camcorders gives you features found on much more expensive camcorders. With the ZR900, you can record video that's great even when the light isn't, because it comes with a video light built into the LCD screen to help give a soft, even light to a nearby subject when you're shooting in dark conditions. Additionally, capturing level, well-composed shots is simple with the ZR900. Line up the horizon or other horizontal lines with the Level Marker in the viewfinder for level landscapes. Or, use the Grid Marker to help compose the perfect shot. Both markers can be set to white or grey for enhanced visibility, no matter what the background color. With the Canon Quick Start feature, you'll never miss a shot again. Simply push the Quick Start button, in between shots, to put your camcorder in stand-by mode. When you push the Quick Start button again, your camcorder powers up and begins to record in less than a second. |
