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. 27), then zoom in or out in Record mode.
●
Zooming is possible to a maximum of 800X, or it
can be switched to 32X magnification using the
optical zoom. (
●
Zoom magnification of over 32X is done through
Digital image processing, and is therefore called
Digital Zoom.
●
During Digital zoom, the quality of image may
suffer.
●
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 FUNCTION Menu on page 23.
●
When shooting a subject close to the lens, zoom
out first. If zoomed-in in the auto focus mode, the
camcorder may automatically zoom out
depending on the distance between the
camcorder and the subject. This will not occur
when “TELE MACRO” is set to “ON”. (
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°
downward, 180°
upward).
