OPERATION:

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
(
Z
pg. 37), then zoom in or out in Record mode.
●
In Full Auto mode (when the Operation Switch is
set to “
”), zoom magnification of up to 40X is
possible. In Manual mode (when the Operation
Switch is set to “
”), zooming is possible to a
maximum of 100X or can be switched to 10X
magnification offered by 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 while functions done
through Digital image processing (Picture Wipe/
Dissolve function,
Z
pg. 32, Video Echo,
Z
pg. 35,
etc.) are activated.
●
Macro shooting (as close as approx. 5 cm to the
subject) is possible when the Power Zoom Lever is
set all the way to “W”. Also see “TELE MACRO” in
the System Menu on page 30.
