Notes:

•While zooming, focusing may become unstable. If so, set the zoom while in record-standby mode and adjust the image using manual focus (see page 66). Once the focus is set, zoom the camcorder in or out while recording.

•The zoom level icon moves during zoom. Once it reaches the top of the zoom icon bar, all magnification from that point is through digital processing.

•During digital zoom, the quality of image may suffer.

Using Digital Zoom
