Digital Zoom - Sony CS-301 Instruction Manual

• Do not shoot a strong light source, such as the sun. The internal mechanism of the
camera may be damaged.
• When you import AVCHD movies to a computer, use "PlayMemories Home"
(pages 66, 179).
• When you continue to shoot for a long time, the temperature of the camera rises and
the image quality may deteriorate.
• When the mark is indicated, the temperature of the camera is too high. Turn the
camera off and wait until the temperature of the camera drops. If you continue to
shoot, the camera is turned off automatically.
• Since the shutter speed and aperture are automatically adjusted, the shutter speed
will be higher and the movement of the subject may not be smooth under bright
conditions. Selecting manual focus and adjusting the shutter speed or aperture may
make the movement smoother (page 105).
• A value for the ISO sensitivity between ISO 100 and ISO 3200 can be selected when
you record movies. If you start movie recording with a value of ISO 3200 or larger
selected, the ISO sensitivity is switched to ISO 3200. When you finish recording
your movie, the ISO sensitivity setting is returned to the previous value.
• When ISO is set to [Multi Frame Noise Reduct.], [AUTO] is temporarily selected.
• You cannot select [Soft Focus], [HDR Painting], [Rich-tone Mono.], or [Miniature]
in Picture Effect. When movie recording starts, Picture Effect is temporarily set to
[Off].
• [Clear Image Zoom] cannot be used during movie recording.

You can use the digital zoom feature during movie recording. The quality,
however, will deteriorate because image processing is performed.
