Zooming - Canon UC7000 Instruction Manual

Zooming
The camera's 16x zoom lens allows you to choose the best picture angle for each scene:
• Turn the zoom control towards W to zoom out to wide-angle.
• Turn it towards T to zoom in to telephoto.
You can also control the speed of zooming:
• Move the control slightly to zoom slowly.
• Turn it further to zoom more quickly. (The further you turn the zoom control, the faster the zoom speed.)
The T and W buttons on the wireless controller adjust the picture angle, but not the zoom speed:
• Press W to zoom out to wide-angle.
• Press T to zoom in to telephoto.
32x digital zoom (UC7500/UC7000)_
Turn the digital zoom on by choosing DIGITAL ZOOM at the camera menu, to double the camera's zoom range.

• In addition, for the UC7500/UC7000 you can assign CUSTOM KEY 1 to tum the digital zoom on/otf (see page 20).
The zoom control continues to work as usual. You can freely zoom in and out between lx and 32x
magnification — the camera automatically switches between optical zooming (up to 16x) and digital
zooming (16x to 32x).

Notes:
• The viewfinder display stays lit for approximately 4 seconds following an adjustment to the picture angle.
• Overuse of the zoom may make recordings seem too busy. It is generally better to use it sparingly, or in
order to reframe between shots.
• When you want to get as close as possible to your subject, keep the zoom at the wide-angle position. You
can focus on a subject as close as 1 cm (3/8 in).
• When you turn the digital zoom on at the menu, "32X" appears in the viewfinder.
