ZOOMING
Use the zoom function for close-up or wide-angle recording.
This DVD camcorder allows you to record using optical 34x power zoom and 1200x digital
zoom.
• Zoom lever is on the top of the camcorder.
• You can also use zoom function by moving the Joystick (W/T) up or down.
To zoom in
Slide the zoom lever towards T (telephoto).
To zoom out
Slide the zoom lever towards W (wide-angle).
• The farther you slide the zoom lever, the quicker the zoom action.
• Zoom magnification over 34x is done through digital image processing, and is, therefore,
called digital zoom. Digital zooming is possible up to 1200x.
Set "Digital Zoom" to the desired value. page 76
You can set the digital zoom up to 1200x in movie mode.
• Be sure to keep your finger on the Zoom lever. If you move your finger off the zoom
lever, the operation sound of the Zoom lever may be also recorded.
• The minimum possible distance between camcorder and subject while maintaining
sharp focus is about 1 cm (about 0.39 inch) for wide angle and 50 cm (about 19.68
inch) for telephoto.
• The focus changes when zooming after focusing manually. Focus automatically or
seize the desired scene by zooming before focusing manually. page 70
• Optical zoom preserves the movie quality, but during digital zoom the image quality
may suffer.
