With its condenser microphones in 30° to 150° Mid-Side stereo configuration, the Q2HD gives you natural depth and accurate imaging. From live musical performances, rehearsals and recitals to journalism, education, sports and travel, the Q2HD's pristine audio is so realistic your movies will let you relive the moment over and over again.

The Q2HD's streaming function is compatible with Ustream Producer, Flash Media Live Encoder, Skype and other popular streaming applications. And it works wonders with premium programs such as Ustream Producer Pro or Studio. It's never been easier to broadcast your movies on the web in real-time.

It also has a larger aperture than its predecessor, which lets more light into your movies.
Move aside.
Zoom made on-the-go viewing better than ever with the Q2HD. You can easily switch between "Portrait" and "Landscape" playback by pressing and holding the PLAY key. Watch your videos anywhere with its color LCD screen and built-in reference speaker.
Cue the lights.
With the Q2HD, you can choose from three different lighting settings, all of which have been improved from its predecessor. This makes shooting video in challenging lighting conditions easy. For most situations, choosing "Auto" will give you the best and clearest results.
