72×/360× digital zoom
Zooming
The camcorder’s zoom lens allows you to choose the best picture angle for each
scene:
• Move the zoom control towards W to zoom out to wide-angle.
• Move it towards T to zoom in to telephoto.
You can also control the speed of zooming:
• Move the control slightly to zoom slowly.
• Move it farther to zoom more quickly. (The farther you move the zoom control,
the faster the zoom speed.)
The T and W buttons on the wireless controller adjust the picture angle, but not
the zoom speed.

The zoom control continues to work as usual. You can freely zoom in and out
between 1× and 360× magnification — the camcorder automatically switches
between optical zooming (up to 18×) and digital zooming (18× to 72× or 18× to
360×).
