Journalistic Shooting

In some situations, different shooting angles may provide more dramatic
results. Hold the camcorder in the desired position and tilt the LCD
monitor in the most convenient direction. It can rotate 270° (90° down-
ward, 180° upward).

Interface Shooting

The person you shoot can view himself/herself in the LCD monitor, and
you can even shoot yourself while viewing your own image in the LCD
monitor.
Open the LCD monitor and tilt it upward to 180° so that it faces forward.
When the LCD monitor is tilted upward to an angle of over approx. 105°,
the monitor image is inverted vertically. If the viewfinder is pulled out at
that time, it also switches on.
Point the lens toward the subject (yourself when self-recording) and start
recording.
During Interface Shooting, the monitor image and indications do not
appear inverted as they would when viewing a mirror.

Zooming

FEATURE:
PURPOSE:
To produce the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous
change in image magnification.
OPERATION:
Zoom In
Turn the Power Zoom (SHUTTLE SEARCH) Ring
towards "T".
Zoom Out
Turn the Power Zoom (SHUTTLE SEARCH) Ring
towards "W".
The further you turn the Power Zoom Ring the
quicker the zoom action.
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. 53), then zoom in or out in Record mode.
Zooming is possible to a maximum of 200X, or it
can be switched to 10X magnification using the
optical zoom ( pg. 41).
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 in the following cases:
• When digital image processing, such as Picture
Wipe/Dissolve ( pg. 50, 51) or Video Echo
( pg. 49), is activated.
Macro shooting (as close as approx. 5 cm (2") to the
subject) is possible when the Power Zoom Ring is
set all the way to "W". Also see "TELE MACRO" in
the Menu Screen on page 41.
