 |
| The
Q3 uses the same microphone capsules as our industry-leading H4n Handy
Recorder and is perfect for recording anything where great audio and
video are a must. From live musical performances and rehearsals,
interviews, conferences to video podcasts, journalism, education,
recitals, weddings or sports, the Q3's pristine audio quality takes
your videos to another level. |
 |
 |
Designed
with everything you need to make your movies right out of the box, the
Q3 includes HandyShare software for editing, and a 2GB SD card for up
to 1 hour of video recording time. And the Q3 will also accept up to
32GB SDHC cards for a staggering 16 hours of moviemaking!
*Video shooting time is based on audio quality setting of video at 320kbps MP3.

When
your shoot is complete, the Q3's cleverly designed USB cable lets you
upload your movies to your computer. Then use HandyShare to edit and
share them on your favorite websites including YouTube, Facebook and
MySpace. Or, plug in the included TV cable and watch your videos on
television. |
 |
| The
Q3 supports QuickTime (MOV) format. With MPEG-4 SP compression in VGA
size (640 x 480 pixel) at 30 frames per second, you can record very
smooth video shots anywhere, anytime. Plus, integrated digital 2 times
zoom function enables you to get up close and personal. |
 |
 |
| The
Q3's large, 2.4'' LCD screen with a resolution of 320 x 240 makes
viewing easy on the go. Its display also includes audio meters so you
can quickly set and monitor your levels as you shoot. Additional data
such as remaining recording time and remaining battery life are also
accessible, and its built-in monitor speaker enables you to check video
with audio right after shooting. |
 |
| The
Q3 has two condenser mics on-board, engineered in the same X/Y pattern
as the H4n Handy Recorder that gives recording pros the best stereo
recording possible. Arranged with the right and left mics on the same
axis, this design ensures that the mics are always an equal distance
from the sound source for perfect localization without phase shifting.
The result is a great sounding recording with natural depth and highly
accurate stereo imaging every time... all at the touch of a button. |

 |
| The
Q3's X/Y microphones are directional, so you can "focus" the mics on
your sound source. Use the on-board audio meters to set the gain to
Low, High or Auto so you can record in very loud or very soft
environments. Or use the Q3's Auto Record Level function to
automatically set the appropriate recording levels for the situation!
Shoot your video with the confidence that the Q3 is capturing great
audio at the absolute best level possible. |
 |

| With
the Q3, all your videos will sound like they were recorded in a
professional studio. Ideal for shooting any kind of musical performance
from jazz to classical to metal, solo to orchestral, the Q3 will make
it fun and easy to shoot your music videos anywhere, anytime. The Q3
also makes it easy to share your videos with your friends on YouTube.
Simply
plug the Q3 into your computer, launch the onboard HandyShare software
and select the videos you want to put on the web. And if your vision
needs a few edits, you can use HandyShare to cut your movie before you
share it with the world. |

 |
| To
play music better, seeing your performance can be almost as important
as hearing yourself. With the Q3, you get both capabilities. Music
educators and students alike will find a plethora of applications for
the Q3 from the classroom to the practice room. Ideal for recording
auditions or making video lessons available to students, the Q3's
amazing stereo recording will capture every nuance while the video
rolls. Use the Q3 on a microphone stand with our mic clip adaptor
option, sold separately. |
 |
 |
| The
Q3 makes an excellent accessory for anyone who does videography as a
full-time occupation or as a hobby. Imagine being able to use the Q3
for individualized video shoots of the bride and groom before a
wedding. Or give a Q3 to everyone in the wedding party for personalized
video clips. Capture the wedding music with ease. The possibilities are
truly endless. And with pristine, focused audio, you'll never miss a
moment, even in a noisy environment. |

Have
great seats? Every crack of the bat, swing of the club or
bone-crunching tackle can be captured with amazing clarity...
especially when you're close to the action. Capture the sights and
sounds of the game from the little leagues to the big leagues.
It's
never been more important for journalists and bloggers to be versatile
in the field. Shoot "on the scene" video, edit and upload with ease,
all with broadcast-ready audio. And because the Q3 has a standard
tripod mount, you can put it just about anywhere for the perfect shot
in any environment. |
|
|
| The
Q3 is the only portable camcorder that allows you to turn off the video
and record audio only. As a high-quality linear PCM audio recorder, the
Q3 supports audio recording at 96kHz / 24-bit resolution which is
superior to CD quality. You can also record in MP3 format for handy
uploading to your website or email. |
 |
 |
| For
added convenience, the Q3 includes two standard AA/LR6 batteries that
give you about two hours of battery life with continuous video
recording. Or use two AA-sized Ni-MH rechargeable batteries with
dedicated charger, or an AC adaptor (option AD-14 sold separately). |
 |
 |
| A
handy video recorder that's compact and portable, the Q3 lets you enjoy
video from special events such as concerts, recitals, weddings, class
plays, sporting events- literally anywhere that great audio makes the
moment memorable. The Q3 puts a little bit of video and a whole lot of
audio together in one quick and easy to use camcorder that lets you
