Advanced Techniques
Using the Digital Zoom
The digital zoom increases the magnification of the optical zoom. You must place the subject you wish to magnify at the center of the viewfinder.
Note: This digital zoom has certain limitations and may degradate at extreme magnification and amplify camera/recorder's movement.
Press and hold the power zoom T control until you find the picture you want. You control the zoom with the power zoom T and W controls. When ZOOM is not displayed in the viewfinder, normal zoom functions resume.
Using the INST. ZOOM (Instant Zoom) Button
The instant zoom feature activates the digital zoom to magnify the subject
1.5times regardless of zooming engaged by the power zoom T and W controls.
Press the INST. ZOOM button. I. ZOOM appears at the left of the viewfinder and the picture is magnified 1.5 times momentarily.
Note: To return to the original zoom position, press the INST. ZOOM button so that I. ZOOM disappears from the viewfinder.
Note: This instant zoom has certain limitations and may degradate at extreme magnification and amplify camera/recorder's movement.
Using Auto Focus
The camera/recorder focuses the subject in the center of the viewfinder automatically unless the manual focus is engaged. If FOCUS appears in the viewfinder, manual focus is engaged. Press the FOCUS select button to return to auto focus.
