[Digital Zoom]: Determines the
operation of the digital zoom.
The color of the indicator indi-
cates the zoom.
When activated, the cam-
corder will switch automatically
to digital zoom when you zoom
in beyond the optical zoom
range.
With the digital zoom the
image is digitally processed, so
the image resolution will deteri-
orate the more you zoom in.
[AF Mode]: Select how fast the autofocus will operate.
•With [ Instant AF] the autofocus adjusts quickly to a new subject.
This is convenient for example when changing the focus from a near
subject to a far subject in the background, or when recording moving
subjects.
[Image Stabilizer]: The image stabilizer compensates for camcorder
shake. You can select the degree of compensation.
[Dynamic]: This setting compensates for a higher degree of cam-
corder shake, such as when shooting while walking, and is more effective
as the zoom approaches full wide angle.
[Standard]: This setting compensates for a lower degree for cam-
corder shake, such as when shooting while remaining stationary, and is
suitable for shooting natural-looking scenes.
[ Off]: Use this setting when the camcorder is mounted on a tripod.
