ZOOMING IN AND OUT

Use the zoom function for close-up or wide-angle recording. This camcorder allows you to record using 10x optical power zoom and 1200x digital zoom.

You can zoom with the zoom lever or the Control (W/T) button on the LCD panel.

Zoom magnifi cation over 10x is done through digital image processing, and is therefore called digital zoom. Digital zooming is possible up to 1200x. Set "Digital Zoom" to "On." page 67

To zoom in

Slide the Zoom lever towards T (telephoto).

(Or press the Control button () on the LCD panel.)

To zoom out

Slide the Zoom lever towards W (wide-angle).

(Or press the Control button () on the LCD panel.)

The minimum possible distance bbetween the camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp focus is about 5cm (about 1.96 inch) for wide -angle and 1m (about 39.4 inches) for telephoto.

Optical zoom preserves image quality, but during digital zoom the image quality may suffer.

Fast zooming or zooming in subject at a far distance may produce slow focusing. If this occurs, use "Manual Focus." page 62

It is recommended to use "Anti-Shake (HDIS)" with handheld recording if the subject is zoomed in and enlarged.

Frequent use of the zoom function consumes more power.

The zooming speed of the zoom lever and zoom button are different. Use appropriately at your preference. For faster zooming adjustment, use the zoom lever. For slower zooming adjustment, use the zoom buttons.
