Journalistic Shooting

Produces the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous change in image magnification.

NOTES:

Focusing may become unstable during Zooming. In this case, set the zoom while in Record- Standby, lock the focus by using the manual focus ( pg. 37), then zoom in or out in Record mode.

Zooming is possible to a maximum of 800X, or it can be switched to 32X magnification using the optical zoom. ( pg. 33)

Zoom magnification of over 32X is done through Digital image processing, and is therefore called Digital Zoom.

During Digital zoom, the quality of image may suffer.

Digital zoom cannot be used when the VIDEO/ MEMORY Switch is set to “MEMORY”.

Macro shooting (as close as approx. 5 cm to the subject) is possible when the Power Zoom Lever is set all the way to “W”. Also see “TELE MACRO” in FUNCTION Menu on page 33.

When shooting a subject close to the lens, zoom out first. If zoomed-in in the auto focus mode, the camcorder may automatically zoom out depending on the distance between the camcorder and the subject. This will not occur when “TELE MACRO” is set to “ON”. ( pg. 33)

In some situations, different shooting angles may provide more dramatic results. Hold the camcorder in the desired position and tilt the LCD monitor in the most convenient direction. It can rotate 270° (90° downward, 180° upward).

Interface Shooting

The person you shoot can view himself/herself in the LCD monitor, and you can even shoot yourself while viewing your own image in the LCD monitor.

1) Open the LCD monitor and tilt it upward to 180° so that it faces forward.Then, pull out the viewfinder fully.

2)Point the lens toward

the subject (yourself when self-recording) and start recording.

During Interface Shooting, the monitor image appears inverted as it would when viewing a mirror. However, the actual recorded image does not appear inverted.

If the Quick Review ( pg. 22) is executed during the interface- shooting, the LCD monitor will be turned off.

In such a case, check the playback picture in the viewfinder. To check the playback picture in the LCD monitor, close the viewfinder.
