35x Optical Performance You Can See The name Canon is synonymous with optical excellence
the world over. Brilliant optical quality is part of every Canon broadcast TV lens, 35mm
film camera, digital camera and camcorder -- and the ZR850 is no exception. It gives you
clear, vibrant and brilliant video you'll be proud to share. Your ZR850 camcorders come
with Genuine Canon Optics, known worldwide by professionals and consumers alike for
unsurpassed optical performance. In addition, the ZR camcorders come equipped with Canon's
longest zoom ever: a 35x Optical Zoom. Plus, a powerful 1000x digital zoom lets you get
close to the action from even farther away. * Image Stabilization The ZR850's image
stabilizer allows you to shoot rock-steady video -- even at maximum telephoto without a
tripod -- for professional-looking video. * Brilliant Video The ZR850 features Canon's
exclusive DIGIC DV image processor, which processes video and photos differently,
resulting in exceptional color and clarity for both. Other features make it easy to record
brilliant video. * Smooth Zoom Control With Canon's smooth zoom control, you'll have
three, pre-set zoom speeds that ensure professional, steady zoom shots. * Level and Grid
Markers Capturing level, well-composed shots is simple with the ZR850. 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. * Built-in Video Light The
ZR850 even comes with a built-in video light so you can record video that's great -- when
the light isn't. * Megapixel Performance With the ZR850 you get a 1.07 megapixel CCD image
sensor. Your video will be sharper, clearer and more true to life, as will your photos.
Every sunset on the beach will be more dramatic with every color in the sky faithfully
captured. The joy on the face of a child scoring her first goal on the soccer field is
recorded just as you saw it. * Widescreen HR Recording You want your memories to last
forever -- that's why you've taken the time to capture them. And you want to shoot in
widescreen format to get everything you can out of your new widescreen TV or home theater
system. So, why is the way you record widescreen images so important? Because you want an
image made for widescreen, not adapted for widescreen. Because every HD television is
widescreen -- widescreen is the future. The story of how we do 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 competitors' camcorders force the
wider picture into a smaller space on the sensor -- giving you a less true image, with
fewer pixels and lower quality. With a Canon camcorder, your videos of your travels will
let you relive great memories. In addition, the viewfinder on your ZR850 displays your
widescreen image in a letterbox view. From side to side and top to bottom, what you see is
what you get. You can also view your widescreen shot in the ZR850's large, 2.7" LCD
screen or its .35" color viewfinder. Either way, there isn't the guessing or extra
work in looking at an image that's distorted like a fun house mirror. To make things even
easier, a Widescreen Button lets you switch from standard 4:3 to 16:9 Widescreen HR at the
touch of your finger. You can also use the widescreen feature with the camcorder's
advanced image stabilization. Every one of the camcorders in Canon's new ZR series gives
you Widescreen HR Recording at a very affordable price. Why shouldn't your camcorder shoot
as wide as your widescreen TV? It should -- and it's hard to match the widescreen video,
or the value, you'll get from your Canon ZR. Remember -- widescreen is the future. And
Canon's Widescreen HR is true widescreen that's picture perfect. * Easy Operation The
ZR850 comes with a variety of features that make it an easy-to- operate camcorder. The
Joystick makes using the camcorder easier than ever. 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 during recording. Also, an easy-to-read menu
system makes the ZR850 a breeze to operate. For the ultimate in stress-free shooting,
there's the Easy Mode. In this setting, your ZR850 will automatically choose the focus,
exposure and any additional available parameters to ensure that whatever you're recording
comes out looking great. You don't have to worry about a thing -- just point and shoot!
Plus, this versatile camcorder is designed for lower battery consumption -- so you can
keep on recording. * Exposure Lock With a push of its convenient omni-selector joystick,
the ZR850 lets you lock your exposure settings, and then recompose your shot. For example,
you can lock your exposure while zoomed in on your subject's face. Then, even if you zoom
out to include a very bright or dark background, your ZR850 will still give your subject
the right exposure. Also, by shifting the omni-selector left or right, you can adjust your
exposure by up to +/-11 stops (+/-2.75 EV). * Auto Slow Shutter Function The Auto Slow
Shutter function ensures perfect exposures in low light by lowering your shutter speed. *
Program AE Mode The ZR850 comes with Program AE Mode settings that give you perfect
exposures in a variety of conditions: Snow, Beach, Sunset, Spotlight, Fireworks, Portrait,
Sports and Night. * Experience Digital Photography When you've got your ZR850 with you,
you can leave your digital still camera at home. That's because with Canon's DoubleShot
technology, you don't just get video and photography -- you get the best of both. At the
heart of the ZR850's performance as a digital still camera is Canon's exclusive DIGIC DV
signal processing circuit. Because video and still images have different color
requirements, DIGIC DV processes the two differently. So, along with stunning video
images, you also get digital photos from your ZR850 that are maximized for viewing on
computer monitors and as prints. The ZR850 also comes with an array of features that add
to its performance as a digital still camera. - 9 Point Ai-AF A feature found on more
expensive camcorders, Auto Intelligent Auto Focus ensures sharp images and gives creative
flexibility. Even when your subject isn't in the center of the frame, the ZR850's 9 Point
AiAF will bring it into sharp focus. - Progressive Photo Canon's Progressive Photo gives
you sharper detail in your digital photography. - Scene Modes Special Scene Modes ensure
accurate exposures under a wide variety of difficult lighting conditions. Modes include:
Portrait, Sports, Night, Snow, Beach, Sunset, Spotlight, or Fireworks. For example, choose
Spotlight and your camcorder exposes for the subject in the center of your frame. This is
perfect for recording your child's moment in the spotlight on stage. Or, pick Night to
capture the magic of a cityscape after the sun goes down. - Image Effects Four different
image settings are available depending on your subject: Vivid, Neutral, Low-Sharpening,
and Skin Detail. - Simultaneous Photo Recording Simultaneous Photo Recording lets you
capture a digital photograph while recording video. * Firewire/IEEE1394 DV Terminal
Transfer your video to your computer and you can easily share your captured memories with
friends and family. With the ZR850, it's simple. 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 everyone to enjoy. * Motion JPEG Mode With the ZR850's Motion JPEG Mode, you can
also record movie clips directly to your camcorder's memory card for posting online or
e-mailing to family and friends. * Share Your Photos The ZR850 give you a variety of ways
to share your photos with friends and family. It's easy to share digital photos via email
because you can easily transfer images directly to your PC using the USB terminal. You can
also print directly from your camcorder to any PictBridge-compatible printer, or store
your digital photos on a Secure Digital (SD) Memory Card or a MultiMediaCard. Plus, these
new ZRs are SD HC compatible, which allows you to use cards with a capacity of 2GB or
larger. That means you can store even more digital photos than before. * Additional
Features - Built-in Manual Lens Cover means you never have to go looking for your lens
cover again. Plus, you don't have the bother of your lens cap dangling from your
camcorder. - Remote Control lets you be operate your ZR850 remotely -- so you can be in
the picture with everyone else. - 1 Year Parts And Labor Limited Warranty provides
protection long after other manufacturers' warranties expire. -- SPECIFICATIONs
