QuickTime (.mov) is a multimedia development, storage, and playback technology developed by Apple Computer. QuickTime supports video, animation, graphics, 3D and virtual reality (VR).

Apart from these terms, for most of us, using a QuickTime player to watch and control QuickTime movies could bring great pleasure. What's more, the new generation of digital cameras not only takes still photos with amazing clarity, but also records high-quality video in QuickTime format (MOV).
