		22x magnification) can function. When set to “OFF” during
		Digital Zoom, zoom magnification changes to 22x.

		effect similar to professional productions can be given to your
		tape.
		NOTE:
		While the colour bars are displayed, the camcorder’s other
		functions are disabled.

		etc. When “DEMO MODE” is set to “ON” and the Menu Screen
		is closed, demonstration starts.
