With the digital zoom the image is digitally processed, so

the image resolution will deteriorate the more you zoom in.[AF Mode]: Select how fast the autofocus will operate.

With [=Instant AF] the autofocus adjusts quickly to a new subject. This is convenient, for example, when changing the focus from a near subject to a far subject in the background, or when recording moving subjects.

When the optional Wide-converter or Tele-converter is attached to the camcorder, it may partially obstruct the Instant AF sensor. Set the AF mode to [@Normal AF].

When the recording program is set to [šSCN: Underwater] or

[ŸSCN: Surface], the AF mode is automatically set to [@Normal AF].
