The Canon ZR25MC Digital Camcorder
The
Canon ZR25MC combines stunning digital video, still images and full, rich stereo
sound into a sleek design with artistic detailing that's comfortable to hold and
small enough for virtually any pocket. The ZR25MC's versatility expands even
further after shooting as it easily connects to a DV-ready personal computer for
editing or to a TV for the pure joy of sharing experiences.
10x Optical Zoom Lens plus 200x Digital Zoom
This Canon optical zoom lens perfectly transforms distant subjects into
dramatic close-ups with absolutely no loss in image quality. The digital
zoom extends the magnification to an amazing 200x (40x when using a memory
card) revealing details too distant to be seen with just the eye alone.
The scope from wide panorama to super telephoto is outstanding.
Image Stabilizer
A high quality image stabilization system corrects camera shake instantly,
giving you smooth, stable pictures. It enables you to record shake-free
images, even on long telephoto shots without a tripod.
Progressive Photo
The Canon ZR25MC employs the Progressive Photo function to record sharp,
clear still images, even of moving subjects, onto a memory card. When you
take a still image, the camcorder's iris works as a mechanical shutter,
immediately closing to shut out superfluous image data. Every 1/30 of a
second, the camcorder reads two fields of image data simultaneously,
resulting in full-frame images virtually free of time-lag blur.
Digital Photo Mode
The camcorders function as a digital still camera; they're like two
cameras in one. Just press the photo button to capture more than 700
stunning still pictures on a single videocassette (in SP mode) or combine
video and still pictures together with the added benefit of audio. The
ZR25MC can also capture approximately 60 fine resolution still pictures
onto an 8 MB MultiMediaCard.
Flexible LCD View Screen and Color Viewfinder
The 2.5-inch view screen makes it easier to compose sensational shots from
any angle. It swivels and flips for maximum handling comfort and
flexibility. It also tucks neatly away when bright shooting conditions
make the eyecup viewfinder the preferred way to shoot.
AV Insert and Audio Dubbing
Use this feature to insert new scenes of video from your VCR or other
camcorder on to a tape recorded in the SP mode. Using a recording made in
the 12-bit audio mode you can also add stereo sound from another audio
source or through the internal microphone or an external microphone.
PCM Digital Sound
The camcorder offer two digital audio modes to enhance the playback
experience. The 16-bit mode produces the higher, CD equivalent,
two-channel sound quality while the 12-bit mode records on two of four
channels leaving two other channels free to dub extra sound at a later
date.
Program Auto Exposure
Ensures great video results even in challenging shooting conditions.
Select the program that matches your scene and the camcorder adjusts
internal controls for perfect video every time. Choose from Easy
Recording, Auto, Sports, Portrait, Spotlight, Sand & Snow and Low
Light.
Digital Effects
- Faders: Choose between Fade Trigger, Vertical Wipe, Horizontal Wipe
and Mosaic fades.
- Effects: Give variety to your images during recording by adding Art,
Black and White, Sepia or Mosaic effects.
IEEE 1394 DV Terminal
The ZR25MC is equipped with a DV IN/OUT terminal that conforms to IEEE
1394. It takes just a single digital cable to transfer or copy your videos
in pure digital form to your DV compatible computer or another Canon DV
camcorder. Once you’ve transferred video images to your computer, you
can edit your movies, send them over the Internet, or post them on your
web site. You can also print them out on a color printer, transfer them
back to your Canon camcorder and archive them on a Mini DV cassette, or
create a dubbing master.
