Summary: Excellent Camera at a reasonable price.
Comment: Canon ZR900 MiniDV Camcorder with 41x Optical Zoom
Bought this camcorder as a graduation gift for my 13 year old niece. She already has an iMac and a digital camcorder so this camera fit in perfectly and she is able to take great videos and edit them in iMovie. She loves to make movies with her ZR900 and the the size, features and price is right.
We already have an entire DVD put together of our 4th of July party just two weeks ago.

Summary: Canon ZR900 Camcorder with 41x Optical Zoom
Comment: Very happy with product--thought there was a catch as I've never ordered online and the fact that it was so cheap! Cheaper than the manufacturer...no catch it was brand new and I have been using it ever since

Summary: Great camera
Comment: I am forced to write the review because of totally uneducated review left by "E. Robles "VJ Pike". He apparently never went to the menu section of the camera. When i get any electronic item, the first thing I do, is to go to the Menu and play around with the setting. If he had ever visited the Menu section, let alone play around with it, he wouldn't have written an embarrassing and incorrect review. While I agree with SDHC part is falsely advertised, markers and 41x zoom are not.
Go to Menu->Camera Setup->Zoom and you can select between 37x, Advanced 41x, and 2000x digital+optical zoom options.
Go to Menu->Display Setup->Marker and you can select level marker and grid options.
These are not falsely advertised, but the user did not have the opportunity to find out. I wonder if he bought the same camera or thought he did and bought something else.
Regarding the camera, its a solid performer. Zoom is more than enough. Video quality is pretty good although not the best (For something less than 200$ what do you expect? HD?).
The external mic jack is a big plus. It's very light and fits right into my hands. Mini DV allows me to get uncompressed video out of my tape. Manual controls are adequate, although they could have thrown in more controls for spot exposure, more focus controls.
One drawback is the picture is grainy when shooting in low light. Also it could have had still picture mode to a sd card or something.
I paid 185$ for this camera. I certainly am not complaining. It does what its supposed to do and it does it pretty well. I am more than satisfied with what I got for what I paid.

Summary: The Description is WRONG! beware!
Comment: I've just received my camera, bought right here, and I'm VERY disappointed because the description is FALSE...
for starters, it says "Genuine Canon 41x Advanced Zoom", when the optical zoom is actually 37x, which isn't half bad, but it is NOT as announced...
"Level Shot and Grid Markers", they just DO NOT EXIST, unless theres some obscure, not-documented way to get them to work.
"Still image recording", this was a KEY FACTOR for me to buy the camera, and it DOES NOT TAKE PICTURES! it doesn't even have a SD slot!!! and NO I don't have the wrong camera, check for yourself in the pictures (as i should have...) do you see a SD slot? NO!
"Advanced Photo Features", are you kidding me? the stupid thing DOES NOT take still pictures!!!
The video quality is sub par, and I'm VERY disappointed! if you do not need good quality or those characteristics, go for it, or just go get a real camera...
