Canon’s ZR960 camcorder adheres to an international MiniDV standard. Using MiniDV cassettes, audio and video are recorded digitally. The MiniDV format delivers more than 500 lines of horizontal resolution. In terms of picture quality, this is about 25% better than the best analog formats. It features a DV terminal, also known as a FireWire terminal, which conforms to the IEEE 1394 standard. Using this terminal, you can transfer digital video and audio to and from a computer equipped with a DV terminal, another DV camcorder, or a DV VCR. The digital data transfer occurs without any degradation to the image or audio. This means you can edit movies on your computer and maintain the same high level of picture and audio quality when you transfer the edited movie back to DV tape using the DV terminal.

CCD: The Canon ZR960 uses a 680K pixel CCD to capture high quality video images, High Resolution Photos, and Motion JPEG movies. There is no need to carry both video and photo cameras with the Canon ZR960.

41X Zoom Lens: The ZR960 is fitted with an 41X optical zoom lens, a high performance lens from Canon. The 41X zoom range will more than take care of all your picture-taking needs, whether they are wide-angle shots of all the family at the reunion, or close-up sports action at full telephoto. Add in the high-resolution capability of DV, and you have high quality video at your fingertips.

IEEE 1394 DV Terminal: The ZR960 is designed for the transfer of digital video and audio to and from either a Mac or another IEEE 1394 terminal-equipped camcorder or professional DV VCR. The DV terminal allows high-quality transfer with virtually no deterioration in quality of images. You can edit and process images by connecting the camera to a PC with the IEEE 1394 terminal. All of this is through the use of the IEEE 1394 protocol commonly known as FireWire®.

Canon has created a very high quality camera which produces excellent images. DVR Consulting, Inc. is proud to offer this camera which can be used with our Badger™ Photo-ID software.
