Zooming
The camcorder offers three types of zoom - optical, advanced and dig-
ital. For optical zoom, the camcorder uses the optical magnification
ratio of the lens. For advanced zoom, the camcorder processes the
image beyond the range of the optical zoom to obtain a larger zoom
without any deterioration in image quality. For digital zoom, the image
is processed digitally so image quality will deteriorate the more you
zoom in.
In mode, select the type using the 7 8 [Zoom Type] setting.
In mode, [Zoom Type] will be set to [Advanced]. A summary of the
zoom types is given in the table below.

There are two ways you can zoom in and out: using the zoom lever on
the camcorder or using the zoom controls on the touch screen.
Using the Zoom Lever

(wide angle) to zoom out. Move
it toward P (telephoto) to zoom
in.
By default, the zoom lever oper-
ates at a variable speed – press
gently for a slow zoom; press
harder for faster zooms.
