Zooming In and Out

Zoom works in CAMERA mode only.

Zooming is a recording technique that lets you change the size of the subject in the picture. For more professional looking record- ings, do not use the zoom function too often.

You can also choose from two zoom speeds to suit different needs :

Gradual zoom (9~12 seconds from TELE/WIDE to WIDE/TELE)

High-Speed zoom (3~6 seconds from TELE/WIDE to WIDE/TELE)

Use these features for different shots; please note that overuse of the zoom feature can lead to unprofessional looking results and a reduction of battery pack usage time.

1. Move the zoom lever a little for a gradual zoom, move it further for a

W

T

high-speed zoom.

 

 

Your zooming is monitored on the OSD.

 

 

2.T (Telephoto) side: Subject appears closer.

3.W (Wide angle) side:

Subject appears further away.

Note: MACRO

If you cannot obtain sharp focus in telephoto zoom, move the lever to the “W” side until the focus sharpens.

You can record a subject that is at least 1 mm away from the lens surface in the wide angle position.
