•The highest zoom magnification ratio is 30x in the normal zoom-in.

To zoom out

Slide the zoom lever towards W (wide angle).

•The subject gets smaller and further away.

•The smallest optical zoom ratio is the subject’s original size when zoomed-out.

T : Telephoto

•Using the optical zoom does not degrade the image quality and clarity.

•Use the digital zoom when you want to zoom more than the optical zoom range. page 63

•Focusing may become unstable when you record with a fast zoom or zoom into a subject standing too far away. If this occurs, use the manual focus function. page 59

•The minimum distance you can have between the camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp focus is about 1cm (about 0.4 inches) for wide angle and about 100cm (about 39.4 inches) for telephoto. (about 50cm (19.7 inches) for Tele Macro.)

•If you want to shoot the subject close to the lens at a wide angle, use the Tele Macro function. page 62

•Frequent use of the zoom function consumes more power.

•The camcorder can record the sound of the zoom mechanism.

•When using the zoom function while holding the camcorder with your hand, use Anti-shake (OIS) for stable recording. page 44
