POINTS TO CHECK

: In addition to the 35x optical 

zoom, the digital zoom (up to 1000x) is 
also available (

37).

35x Optical Zoom

Move the zoom lever toward 

W to 

T to zoom in (telephoto).

You can also change the zoom speed 
(

37). You can select one of three fixed 

zoom speeds or a variable speed that 
depends on how you operate the zoom 
lever: Press gently for a slow zoom; press 
harder for faster zooms.

NOTES

 

 You can also use 

the T and W buttons on the wireless controller. 
The zoom speed with the wireless controller will 
be the same as with the camcorder (when one 
of the fixed zoom speed levels is selected) or 
fixed at [SPEED 3] (when [VARIABLE] is 
selected).
 

When set to [VARIABLE], the zoom speed will 

be faster in the record pause mode.
 

Keep at least 1 m to the subject. At wide-angle, 

you can focus on a subject as close as 1 cm.

Quick Start Function

Using the Quick Start function, you'll 
never have to miss out on those great 
and fleeting opportunities to take a picture 
or record video. When you press 

 instead of turning off the 

camcorder, you can get it ready to start 
recording within approx. 1 second.

POINTS TO CHECK

Start ready mode while recording.

to signal that the camcorder is Quick-
Start ready – “ready and waiting” to 
start recording.

button will flash as the camcorder 
completes some preparations. The 
camcorder is Quick-Start ready when 
the button stops flashing and stays on.

Within approx. 1 second, the 
camcorder is ready in record pause 
mode.
