Zooming

Produces the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous
change in image magnification.

Zoom In

Slide the Power Zoom Lever towards “T”.

Zoom Out

Slide the Power Zoom Lever towards “W”.

●

The further you slide the Power Zoom Lever, 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. 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. (

●

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.

●

For other notes,

Journalistic Shooting

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 270º (90º downward,
180º upward).
