Note 2. In quickzoom operation, the zoom moves at the maximum speed irrespective of the setting position of the zoom maximum speed control knob.
Note 3. If you press the quickzoom & auto cruising zoom switch while pressing the zoom seesaw control lever, the zoom moves in auto cruising zoom operation, not in quickzoom operation.
3.Auto Cruising Zoom Operation
In auto cruising zoom operation, the zoom moves to the tele end or the wide end at constant speed. This function is effective when a constant slow zoom speed is required across the zooming range.
Note: If the zoom limit function is used, the zoom will stop at the zoom limit positions. In this case, the zoom may not reach the tele end or the wide end.
Operation
a. Set the servo/manual select knob to “S”.
b. Press the zoom seesaw control lever and adjust the zoom speed.
c. While pressing the zoom seesaw control lever, press the quickzoom & auto cruising zoom switch.
• The auto cruising zoom function will work.
d. Release your hand from the zoom seesaw control lever.
• The zoom will move to the tele end or the wide end at a constant speed that is determined when the quickzoom & auto cruising zoom switch is pressed.
Note: By setting an appropriate switch in the area of “Function & Mode Select Switches” (refer to illustration on page 8), the return switch and the VTR switch can be used also as a quickzoom & auto cruising zoom switch.
Releasing
There are three ways to release the auto cruising zoom operation mode.
1.Press the zoom seesaw control lever on the side of the direction of the zoom movement.
•When the amount of displacement of the zoom seesaw control lever exceeds that determined when the auto cruising zoom operation is set, the auto cruising zoom operation mode will be released. After released, the zoom will move continuously toward the same direction as moved before releasing. (In this way, the auto cruising zoom operation mode can be released maintaining the smooth zoom movement.)

•The auto cruising zoom operation mode will be released immediately, and the zoom will move toward the reverse direction.
3.Press the quickzoom & auto cruising zoom switch. The auto cruising zoom operation will be released immediately, and the zoom will stop.
