M.W.B.

AUTO

This camcorder’s Automatic Color Temperature system senses

 

 

the color temperature of the ambient lighting for automatic

 

: FINE

 

white balance adjustment. However, precise color adjustment is

 

 

 

: CLOUD

not possible under the following conditions:

 

 

• When an object is in various shades of the same color.

 

: HALOGEN

 

• When a predominantly red or brown object is being shot outdoors.

 

 

 

MWB

In these cases, use the camcorder’s built-in preset filters for

 

 

white balance adjustment (pg. 38, 39).

D. ZOOM

ON

Allows you to use the Digital Zoom. By digitally processing and

 

 

magnifying images, zooming is possible from 16 times (the optical

 

 

zoom limit), to a maximum of 320 times digital magnification.

 

OFF

Digital Zoom is not available. Only optical zoom (maximum

 

 

16x magnification) can function. When set to “OFF” during

 

 

Digital Zoom, zoom magnification changes to 16x.

 

 

 

TELE MACRO

OFF

Usually the distance to a subject where the lens is in focus

 

depends on the zoom magnification. Unless there is a distance of

ON

 

more than 1m (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.).

 

 

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