Tip	When using the zoom function, you can decrease its speed by moving the Zoom (W/T) lever slowly.
	Moving it quickly increases the zoom speed. However, if you use the Zoom (W/T) button on the display,
	you cannot adjust the zoom speed.
	• The minimum possible distance between camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp focus is
	about 5cm (about 1.96 inch) for wide-angle and 1m (about 39.4 inch) for telephoto.
	• Zooming during a recording may cause the camcorder to record the sound of the zoom lever or
	zoom button.
	• Optical zoom preserves image quality, but during digital zoom, the image quality may suffer.
	• Fast zooming or zooming in on a far subject may cause slow focus. In this case, use "Manual
	Focus." ²page 51
	• When you do hand held recording, we recommend you use "Anti-Shake (HDIS)" if you zoom in
	on the subject. ²page 52	39
	• Frequent use of the zoom function consumes more power.
