Digital Effects
Show your creativity by using the special effects and digital faders available with the
ZR90, ZR85 and ZR80. A wide selection of faders and special effects will add visual
appeal and greater imaging variety.
PCM Digital Sound
The ZR90, ZR85 and ZR80 offer two
digital audio modes, 12 and 16-bit. You
can select 16-bit mode for high-quality,
CD-equivalent stereo sound, or 12-bit to
record only two of four channels, leaving
two channels free for you to record
additional sound later.
StitchAssist
By using the StitchAssist Mode, you can
create magnificent panoramas. Shoot
your landscape, and transfer them to
your computer. Then simply select and
arrange your images in the correct order,
and the supplied PhotoStitch software
does the rest, aligning, overlapping and
cropping the separate images to form
one ultra-wide panoramic still image.
Faders
Add a variety of transitions to your movies
with a fade to or from black. Choose from
Fade Trigger, Wipe, Corner, Jump, Flip,
Puzzle, Zigzag, Beam and Tide.
Motion JPEG
The ZR90 and ZR85 allow you
to record movie clips in Motion JPEG
format onto the memory card, for clear
images and smooth playback. You may
choose to record in 320 x 240 pixels or
160 x 120 pixels. Best of all, you can
record for the full length of the SD
Memory Card*. If you like, you can even
copy video from the Mini DV tape to the
card, making it easy to attach a mini-
movie to an e-mail or post on the web.
* Max. 60 minutes (512MB SD Memory Card). When using
MultiMediaCards, movie clips are limited to 10 seconds in
320 x 240 and 30 seconds in 160 x 120.
XGA High
Resolution Photos
The ZR90 and ZR85 capture beautiful
high definition photos. Just press the
photo button to capture stunning XGA
(1024 x 768 pixel) images onto the
included 8 MB SD Memory Card. For
added flexibility, you can select the
compression size (Superfine/Fine/
Normal). You can select how long you
wish to review a still image after
recording.
Digital Photo Mode
For added flexibility, you may take up to
700 still images on a MiniDV single tape
(in SP Mode). The camcorder records
the photos for
approximately 6
seconds, as well as
recording the sound
for your verbal notes
or narration.
SD Memory Card and MultiMediaCard
The ZR90 and ZR85 expand video possibilities with a built-in slot
for an SD (Secure Digital) Memory Card or a MultiMediaCard, in
addition to a MiniDV cassette. Easily transfer images to your PC
directly from the camcorder using USB and IEEE1394. Produce effects
not possible with just a cassette using the Card Mix Effects. Choose one
of the sample images provided on the supplied SD Memory Card (such
as picture frames, backgrounds and animations) and combine it with the
live video recording.
Multi-image Screen
Divide your screen into four, nine or
sixteen pictures with the Image
Capture function. You can choose the
speed at which the images are
captured: Manual,
Slow, Moderate or
Fast.

For a more creative look, you can switch
on the following digital effects during
recording or playback: Art, Black &
White, Sepia, Mosaic, Ball, Cube, Wave,
Color Mask or Mirror.
