ZOOMING
To zoom in
Slide the Zoom lever towards T (telephoto).
(Or press the Control (Up) button on the LCD panel.)
W: Wide-angle
•
Zoom magnification over 65x is done through digital image processing, and is therefore called digital zoom. Digital zooming is possible up to 2200x. Set "
Zoom Type" to "Digital Zoom." page 62
•
To maintain sharp focus, the minimum possible distance between the camcorder and subject is about 1cm (about 0.39 inch) for wide-angle and 1m
(about 39.4 inches) for telephoto.
•
Optical zoom preserves image quality, but the image quality may suffer when you use digital zoom.
•
Fast zooming or zooming in a subject that is a good distance away may cause the camcorder to focus slowly. If this occurs, use "Manual Focus."

•
We recommend you use Anti-Shake (HDIS) for handheld recording when the subject is zoomed in and enlarged.
•
Frequent use of the zoom function consumes more power.
•
If you zoom when recording, the camcorder may record the sound of the zoom lever or zoom button operating.
•
When you use the zoom function, you can decrease its speed by slowly moving the Zoom (T/W) lever. Moving the lever quickly increases the zoom speed.
However, you cannnot use the Zoom (T/W) button on the display to adjust the zoom speed.
T: Telephoto
Use the zoom function for close-up or wide-angle
recording. This camcorder allows you to record
using 52x optical power zoom, 65x Intelli-zoom
and 2200x digital zoom.
To zoom out
Slide the Zoom lever towards W (wide-angle).
(Or press the Control (Down) button on the LCD panel.)
