Zooming
To produce the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous change in image magnification.
36X Hyper zoom
Digital circuitry doubles the maximum 18x magnification offered by optical zoom.
1)To zoom in, slide the Zoom Lever toward “T”.
2)To zoom out, slide toward “W”.
●During Hyper Zoom, the speed increases the further you slide the Zoom Lever.
●Focusing may become unstable during Hyper Zoom. In this case, set the zoom while in Record–
Standby, set manual focus or Focus Lock (☞ pg. 22, 23), then zoom in or out in Record mode.
●The Zoom Level Indicator (5) only moves during optical zoom. Once the Zoom Level indicator reaches the top of the zoom indicator bar, all magnification from that point is through digital processing.
●During digital image processing, the quality of the image may suffer.
