VIDEO RECORDING (cont.)

Zooming: To produce the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous change in image magnification.

Digital circuitry extends the maximum magnification offered by optical zoom. This system is called Digital Zoom.

Zoom In

Slide the Power Zoom Lever towards “T”.

Zoom Out

Slide the Power Zoom Lever towards “W”.

●The further you slide the Power Zoom Lever, the quicker the zoom action.

●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. 45), then zoom in or out in Record mode.

●The zoom level indicator (5) moves during zoom. Once the zoom level indicator reaches the top of the zoom indicator bar, all magnification from that point is through digital processing.

●When using Digital Zoom, the quality of image may

suffer. To deactivate Digital Zoom, set “D.ZOOM” to “OFF” in SYSTEM MENU (
pg. 41).

●Digital zoom cannot be used when the “VIDEO ECHO” mode (
pg. 39) is activated (GR-SXM930 only).

Picture Stabilizer: To compensate for unstable images caused by camera-shake, particularly at high magnification.

1)Press P. STABILIZER. “” appears.

2)To switch off the Picture Stabilizer, press P. STABILIZER. The indicator disappears.

●Accurate stabilization may not be possible if hand shake is excessive, or under the following conditions:

•When shooting subjects with vertical or horizontal stripes.

•When shooting dark or dim subjects.

•When shooting subjects with excessive backlighting.

•When shooting scenes with movement in various directions.

•When shooting scenes with low-contrast backgrounds.

●Switch off the Picture Stabilizer when recording with the camcorder on a tripod.

●The “ ” indicator appears blinking if the Stabilizer cannot be used.

●This function cannot be activated during the “Night- Alive” (
pg. 36), “CLASSIC FILM”, “STROBE” and “VIDEO ECHO” mode (
pg. 39) (GR-SXM930 only).
