TELE MACRO

[OFF]: Disables the function.

ON: Usually the distance to a subject where the lens is in focus depends on the zoom magnification. Unless there is a distance more than 1 m (3.3 ft) to the subject, the lens is out of focus at the maximum telephoto setting. When set to “ON”, you can shoot a subject as large as possible at a distance of approx. 60 cm (2 ft).

NOTE:

Depending on the zoom position, the lens may go out of focus.

WIDE MODE

[OFF]: Records with no change in the screen ratio. For playback on a TV with a normal screen ratio.

CINEMA*: Inserts black bands at the top and bottom

of the screen. The indicator appears. During playback

on wide-screen TVs, the black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are cut and the screen ratio becomes 16:9. When using this mode, refer to your wide- screen TV’s instruction manual. During playback/ recording on 4:3 TVs/LCD monitor/viewfinder, black bands are inserted at the top and bottom of the screen and the image appears like a letter boxed 16:9 movie. SQUEEZE* : For playback on TVs with an aspect ratio of 16:9. Naturally expands the image to fit the screen

without distortion. The indicator appears. When using
