You cannot change the zooming speed of the camcorder.

You can record a still image on the camcorder by pressing the PHOTO button.
Note that pressing PHOTO button lightly does not allow you to check the recorded image. For more
details, refer to the operating instructions supplied with your camcorder.
Note
If you use the marine pack with a DVD Handycam, you cannot record still images.

fish swim between the camcorder and the subject. Press AUTO FOCUS ON/OFF button again to set
the camcorder to auto focus mode.
Note
Do not cover the control emitter or detector with your finger as the remote control signal for
operations is transmitted from the grip to the marine pack.
