Canon ZR500 Brochure & Specs

From Canon come the
affordable, easy to use
ZR500, ZR600 and ZR700.
These MiniDV camcorders have
all the technology and features you
need to capture video and digital photos with outstanding image
quality and color clarity. All this in pocket-sized camcorders that come
in distinctive finishes: the ZR500's Blue Mist, the ZR600's Silver Frost,
and the ZR700's Grey Smoke. They go wherever life takes you.
WIDESCREEN HR RECORDING
The ZR500, ZR600 and ZR700 record true widescreen
for picture perfect video. Canon's Widescreen HR uses
the entire width of the image sensor, capturing a big
picture in true widescreen, so no one and nothing is left unseen.
And Canon camcorders take advantage of more pixels to give you
amazing quality. A 2.7" Widescreen LCD lets you see exactly what
your camcorder is recording, and what your TV will display later.
Even if you don't have a widescreen television at home, you can
watch video shot in Widescreen HR. The video will be displayed
in letterbox format, just like movies you buy or rent.
OPTICAL PERFORMANCE YOU CAN SEE
Your ZR camcorder comes with Genuine Canon Optics,
known worldwide by professionals and consumers alike
for unsurpassed optical performance. On top of that, the ZR500,
ZR600 and ZR700 come equipped with a 25x Optical Zoom —
Canon's longest zoom ever. The built-in, high-quality image
stabilizer allows you to shoot rock-steady video, even when you're
at maximum telephoto without a tripod. And a powerful 800x
Digital Zoom (ZR700 — 1000x Digital Zoom) allows you to bring
in the action, even when you're far away.
EASY OPERATION
An easy-to-read menu system makes it a breeze to operate. And
the joystick lets you easily operate playback, focus, exposure and
menu options with the same controller.
POCKET-SIZED
PERFORMANCE

With Level Shot Control, you never have to worry about shooting
