Zooming

If you continue to hold the zoom lever on the “T” control side with Dig. Zoom 40x or 240x specified, the digital zoom will be activated midway (when optical 18-power is exceeded on DZ-MV550A or optical 10-power is exceeded on DZ-MV580A).

You can zoom up to 500-power on DZ-MV550A; up to 240-power on DZ-MV580A.

W:recording wide area (wide-angle)

T: recording enlarged image (telephoto)

Note:

The digital zoom setting will be stored in memory even if the DVD video camera/recorder is turned off.

You can also use the DIGITAL ZOOM button on remote control to switch the digital zoom setting: Pressing the button during movie recording will switch the setting between “Off”, “40×” and “500x” (on DZ-MV550A) or “240x” (on DZ-MV580A): Pressing the button during still recording will switch between “Off” and “40×”.

If you set zoom to 500× (DZ-MV550A), 240× (DZ- MV580A) when recording still, the digital zoom will be up to 40×.

When a subject is zoomed, it may be momentarily out of focus.

When digital zoom is engaged, the image quality will be rougher.
