This camcorder’s Automatic Color Temperature system senses
the color temperature of the ambient lighting for automatic
white balance adjustment. However, precise color adjustment is
not possible under the following conditions:
•When an object is in various shades of the same color.
•When a predominantly red or brown object is being shot outdoors.
In these cases, use the camcorder’s built-in preset filters for
white balance adjustment (੬ pg. 42, 43).
Allows you to use the Digital Zoom. By digitally processing and
magnifying images, zooming is possible from 16 times (the optical
zoom limit), to a maximum of 320 times digital magnification.
Digital Zoom is not available. Only optical zoom (maximum
16x magnification) can function. When set to “OFF” during
Digital Zoom, zoom magnification changes to 16x.
