Zooming In and Out
ENGLISH

✤
Zoom is only available in CAMERA mode.
✤
Zooming is a technique that lets you magnify the size of the subject in the picture.
For a more professional looking recording, don't use the zoom function too often.
✤
There are two zoom speeds to suit different needs :
■
Gradual zoom (9~12 seconds from TELE/WIDE to WIDE/TELE)
■
High-Speed zoom (3~6 seconds from TELE/WIDE to WIDE/TELE)
✤
Use these features for different shots; please note that over use of the zoom feature can lead to a reduction in
available battery time.
1. Move the zoom lever a little for a gradual zoom, move it further
for a high-speed zoom. Your zooming is monitored on the OSD.
2. T (Telephoto) side:
Subject appears closer.
3. W (Wide angle) side:
Subject appears further away.
Note:
MACRO
You can record a subject that is at least 1 mm away from the lens surface in the wide angle position.
If you cannot obtain sharp focus in telephoto zoom, move the lever to the “W” side until the focus sharpens.
