Zooming
Produces the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous
change in image magnification.
Zoom In
Turn the Power Zoom Ring towards “T”.
Zoom Out
Turn the Power Zoom Ring towards “W”.
● The further you turn the Power Zoom Ring, the
quicker the zoom action.
NOTES:
● Focusing may become unstable during Zooming.
In this case, set the zoom while in Record-
Standby, lock the focus by using the manual focus
(੬ pg. 55), then zoom in or out in Record mode.
● Zooming is possible to a maximum of 200X, or it
can be switched to 10X magnification using the
optical zoom. (੬ pg. 44)
● Zoom magnification of over 10X is done through
Digital image processing, and is therefore called
Digital Zoom.
● During Digital zoom, the quality of image may
suffer.
● Digital zoom cannot be used when the VIDEO/
MEMORY Switch is set to “MEMORY”.
● Macro shooting (as close as approx. 5 cm (2”) to
the subject) is possible when the Power Zoom
Ring is set all the way to “W”. Also see “TELE
MACRO” in MANUAL Menu on page 46.
● For other notes, ੬ pg. 81.

You can shoot yourself while viewing
your own image in the LCD monitor.
