200× digital zoom Card 40×
Magnifies the camcorder’s zoom range by up to 20× (up to 4× when using a
memory card).
The zoom control continues to work as usual. You can freely zoom in and out
between 1× and 200× magnification — the camcorder automatically switches
between optical zooming (up to 10×) and digital zooming (10× to 200×).
Zooming
The camcorder’s 10× 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.

To change the digital zoom, open the menu and select CAM.SET UP. Then
select D.ZOOM, set it to OFF or 200× and close the menu.
Notes:
• When zooming, as a rule, keep at least 3 ft 3
3
/8 in (1 m) between you and your
subject. However when the zoom is at the wide-angle position, you can focus
on a subject as close as
3
/8 in (1 cm).
• Image resolution is slightly lower when the magnification is greater than 10×.
• The zoom indicator appears for 4 seconds. When the digital zoom is set to 40×,
the zoom indicator extends (light blue).
When the digital zoom is set to 200× zoom, the zoom indicator extends again (a
darker blue).
