ZOOMING IN AND OUT

Use the zoom function for close-up or wide-angle recording.

This memory camcorder allows you to record using optical 34x power zoom  

and 1200x digital zoom.

You can zoom with the zoom lever or the 

Control (W/T) button on the LCD panel.

Zoom magnification over 34x 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

Slide the Zoom lever towards 

T (telephoto). 

(Or  press the 

Control button (   ) on the LCD panel.)

Slide the Zoom lever towards 

W (wide-angle). 

(Or  press the 

Control button (     ) on the LCD panel.)

 If you operate the Zoom (W/T) lever during recording, the sound of the 

lever may be recorded as well.

You can also zoom with the 

Control (W/T) button on the LCD panel.

The minimum possible distance between camcorder and subject while 

maintaining sharp focus is about 1cm (about 0.39 inch) for wide angle 

and 1m (about 39.4 inch) for telephoto.

The focus changes when zooming after focussing manually.  

Focus automatically or seize the desired scene by zooming before 

focussing manually. ➥page

Optical zoom preserves the movie quality, but during digital zoom the 

quality of image may suffer. 

Fast zooming or zooming in subject of far distance may produce slow 

focusing. In this case, use

 "Manual Focus". ➥page 58

It is recommended to use

 "Anti-Shake (HDIS)" with handheld recording 

if the subject is zoomed in and enlarged.

Frequent use of zooming in / out consumes more battery power.
