Description:

Canon's sleek and compact ZR30 MC camcorder provides almost everything you need to shoot both beautiful footage and digital stills. Small enough to fit in your pocket, the ZR30 MC is equipped with a color LCD view screen and a color eyecup viewfinder, a digital image stabilization system to steady the jittery hand, and a digital zoom that magnifies up to 200 times.

To help ensure that you get the quality footage you want, Canon has included a number of preset shooting modes. These modes will automatically adjust the settings of your camcorder for a variety of shooting situations. There is also an additional set of special effects available during both recording and playback that will help add a little flavor to your movies. These effects include black-and-white, sepia, and mosaic, among others.

Also, using the ZR30 MC's photo mode, you can take over 700 still photos with an 80-minute MiniDV tape or store it onto the portable 8 MB MultiMediaCard. The ZR30 MC also comes with customizable light-up VCR buttons: choose from blue, turquoise, and green. You have your choice of four recording speeds, which allow you to record at up to three times the normal recording time on a standard MiniDV cassette. Additionally, with the advanced accessory shoe, you can easily add a shotgun microphone or video light. With the IEEE 1394 port you can connect the ZR30 MC to a DV-ready personal computer to edit video or e- mail photos. Included in the package are an A/V cable, power adapter, shoulder strap, and battery pack.
