Canon ZR 1000

Canon ZR 1000 ... which connects to the LANC terminal, enables users to select one of five fixed zoom speeds or a variable setting that makes the zoom controller pressure sensitive. In addition, the operator can also control focus. Users can also start and stop recording, place the camcorder in standby mode to conserve battery power between shots, and when connected to a TV monitor, turn the operating status display on or off. Finally, users can activate record search to move forward or backward on the tape while in record pause to confirm prerecorded shots and determine the point where recording will resume. In addition to being used with the XL1, the remote controller also supports any Canon 8mm or DV camcorder equipped with a LANC terminal.
