NOTES:
Focusing may become unstable during Zooming.
In this case, set the zoom while in Record-
Standby, lock the focus by using the manual focus
(
pg. 45), then zoom in or out in Record mode.
Zooming is possible to a maximum of 300X, or it
can be switched to 10X magnification using the
optical zoom. (
pg. 35)
Zoom magnification of over 10X is done through
Digital image processing, and is therefore called
Digital Zoom.
During Digital zoom, the quality of image may
suffer.
Digital zoom cannot be used when the VIDEO/
MEMORY Switch is set to "MEMORY".
Macro shooting (as close as approx. 5 cm (2") to
the subject) is possible when the Power Zoom
Lever is set all the way to "W". Also see "TELE
MACRO" in MANUAL Menu on page 36.
