the image beyond the range of the optical zoom to obtain a
larger zoom without any deterioration in image quality. At full wide
angle, the angle of view with advanced zoom is wider than the
angle of view with optical zoom.
[
Digital]
the image is processed digitally so image quality will deteriorate
the more you zoom in.
NOTES
• Keep at least 1 m (3.3 ft.) away from the subject. At full wide angle, you
can focus on a subject as close as 1 cm (0.39 in.). Using tele macro
(A 85), you can focus on a subject as close as 50 cm (1.6 ft.) at full
telephoto.
• You can also set
stant speeds (3 is the fastest, 1 the slowest). When [Zoom Speed] is set
to [Y Variable], the zoom speed will be faster in record pause mode
than when actually recording, except when pre-recording (A 82) is
activated.
• When you turn off the camcorder, it "remembers" the zoom position so
the next time you turn it on, the zoom position will be the same. You can
activate this feature using the
tup] setting.
