≥When zooming in and taking a picture while holding the Camcorder by hand, we recommend using the optical image stabilizer function.
≥When you are zooming in on a faraway subject, a sharper focus is achieved if the recording subject is 1.3 m (4.3 feet) or further from the Camcorder.
≥When the zoom speed is high, the subject may not be focused easily.
≥When the zoom magnification is 1k, the Camcorder can focus on a subject approx. 2 cm (0.8 inches) away from the lens.
≥Be aware that a mechanical sound may be recorded when the [W/T] lever is released while zooming. Gently move the zoom lever back to it’s original position before releasing it.
