Zoom Q3HD - Recorder video

�

Zoom brought unrivaled stereo sound to your movies with the Q3 Handy Video Recorder. Now, with the Q3HD, there\'s only one handheld camcorder that does it all in 1080p. The Q3HD Handy Video Recorder takes Zoom\'s renowned audio technology and combines it with HD video, allowing you to capture every moment with stunning clarity and resolution.�



It\'s an HD World�

With the Q3HD, it\'s never been easier or more fun to shoot great videos. Select 720p or 1080p for amazing clarity and detail no matter where or what you\'re shooting. It also includes two standard definition (SD) formats for those times when a smaller file size is needed.�



With a new lens and imaging sensor, the Q3HD captures exceptionally clean video that is compressed with the high quality H.264 video codec. It also has a larger aperture, which lets more light into your movies. And with its 4X digital zoom, the Q3HD gets you closer to the action.�



Turn it sideways

Zoom made on-the-go viewing better than ever with the Q3HD. Simply turn the camera on its side and press play. Watch your videos anywhere with its \"widescreen\" color LCD screen and built-in reference speaker.�

Bring up the lights.�



With the Q3HD, you can choose among three different lighting settings. This makes shooting video in challenging lighting conditions easy. For most situations, choosing \"Auto\" will give you the best, clearest results. You can also select \"Concert Lighting\", which will automatically adjust for rapid changes in stage lights and compensate when the stage goes dark. Choose \"Night\" for maximizing any available light in the lowest light conditions.�



Sound makes the movie�

The Q3HD uses the same microphone capsules as Zoom\'s industry-leading H4n Handy Recorder. From live musical performances, rehearsals and recitals to journalism, education, sports or travel, the Q3HD\'s pristine audio is so realistic your movies will transport you back to the moment, to relive over and over again.�



With two on-board, studio-quality condenser mics configured in a wide 120� X/Y pattern, the Q3HD gives you true depth and stereo imaging, making your movies sound as if they were recorded on a Hollywood soundstage.�



The Q3HD also displays audio meters, allowing you to quickly monitor and set your levels. Set the gain to High or Low to record in soft or loud environments. Or use the Q3HD\'s Auto Level to automatically set the right recording level for any given situation. And now with two settings for Auto Level Gain Control, we\'ve made it easy to get great sound no matter what you\'re shooting. For outdoor shoots, we highly recommend using a windscreen over the mics.�



HD Movies out of the box�

The Q3HD is packaged with everything you need to make your movies right out of the box. It includes a 2GB SD card, HandyShare editing software and two AA batteries. With a 2GB SD card, you can record up to 45 minutes of HD video. The Q3HD will also accept SDHC cards of up to 32GB for a staggering 7 hours of HD moviemaking.�



Accessorize your moviemaking with the Q3HD Accessory Pack�

To further enhance its versatility, a Q3HD accessory package (see sku # H70240), including a soft shell case, windscreen, AC adapter, HDMI cable, AV cable and tripod, is sold separately.�



The Q3HD brings HD video and audio together for great looking videos that sound better than ever.�
