Lighting selection function
The Q3HD has a lighting selection function that allows you to record using the best setting for any given lighting condition. The modes that can be used include “Auto,” which automatically adjusts brightness and color, “Concert Lighting,” which suppresses oversaturation from strong lighting and “Night,” which is ideal for filming in dark situations.

4x digital zoomThe 4x digital zoom allows you to shoot both distant landscapes and close-ups of people. You can capture your main subject even when it’s far away.
|
Low-cut filter functionThe unit’s low-cut filter reduces unwanted background noise by cutting the low-frequency range. Attach a windscreen (sold separately), to reduce wind noise so you can get clear audio even when filming outside. |
Edit video easily right on the sceneTrim your movies internally with the Q3HD, as the unit allows you to cut footage and better feature the important scenes without a computer. By erasing unnecessary data from the SD card, you will increase your remaining recording time. |
Take your videos along on an iPod, iPhone or iPadQ3HD video files can be transferred through iTunes to iPads, iPhones and iPods to playback your video. Carry around your favorite videos and watch them whenever you like.
*You must convert your video using the “Create iPod or iPhone version” command in iTunes. |
It’s also an audio recorder The Q3HD can also be used as an audio recorder to record just sound. In addition to being able to record 24-bit/96 kHz PCM files that far exceed CD-quality, the unit can also record AAC (m4a format) files that have smaller sizes. The Q3HD also features an internal reference speaker so you can check recordings without earphones. |
2.4-inch LCD screen makes video easy to watch and the unit easy to useWith the Q3HD’s 2.4-inch LCD screen, you can monitor important information while recording, including sound input level, remaining recording time and battery level. The screen can also be used to show video file thumbnails or to display the menu screen with graphic icons representing the unit’s functions. Turn the Q3HD on its side and press play to watch your videos in “widescreen” 16:9 format.

Audio input jackThe Q3HD’s audio input jack allows for external recording devices to capture video and stereo recordings to the unit. Combined with a mixer, you can use this recorder to capture sound through multiple microphones for sophisticated recordings. |
Compatible with SDHC cards of 32GB high-capacity The Q3HD utilizes SD/SDHC as an affordable way to increase recording capacity. The included 2GB SD card can record about 30 minutes of full HD video, while a 32GB SD card allows for about 7 hours of full HD video recording time.*
*If recorded with AAC (192 kbps) audio quality. |
Runs on readily-available AA batteriesThe Q3HD is powered by two standard AA batteries, resulting in about 2 hours of continuous recording. The unit is also compatible with NiMH batteries, which can be recharged using a commercially-available charger. |
APQ-3HD accessory set available (sold separately)A package of six accessories, specifically designed for the Q3HD, will be sold separately to further enhance your moviemaking. The package includes an HDMI cable for connecting with an HDTV, a windscreen to reduce noise, a tabletop tripod with adjustable-length legs, a padded-shell case, an AC adapter and an AV cable. |
