I've seen it advertized for under $400 US but it is now discontinued.
Apparently the later zr series, which are the low priced Canons, dropped the feature but I'm not sure which model is the last to have it. I know the earlier zr30 didn't have it. I browsed a bit at a local Best Buy and found the feature on a current Canon Elura (I think it was) but not on the current zr-80. So it is still out there. It is not a feature that is usually advertized. On my zr40 you can find it in the VCR set up menu as "AV*DV Out" but there is no mention of it on the outside of the camera. In fact it is a full fledged ad/da converter that will take digital signals over the firewire cable and output them in analog in real time too. Very useful for previewing edited video on a video monitor or making analog tapes. Apparently there are Sony cameras that have this feature too. It would be very useful to have a complete list of camera models that have it. Rich -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
