Zoom
MODE: /
Use the zoom function for close-up or wide-angle shooting. You can zoom in up to 10x by
using the optical zoom.
To zoom in
Slide the zoom lever towards [T] (telephoto).
To zoom out
Slide the zoom lever towards [W] (wide-angle).
The further you slide the zoom lever, the quicker the zoom action becomes.
● Zoom magnification over 10x is done through digital image processing, and is
therefore called digital zoom. Digital zooming is possible up to 200x. Set [ZOOM] to
[40X] or [200X].
NOTES:
● Focusing may become unstable during zooming. In this case, set the zoom before
recording and lock the focus by using the manual focus, then zoom in or out during
recording.
● During digital zoom, the quality of image may suffer.
● Macro shooting is possible as close as approx. 5 cm (2") to the subject when the
zoom lever is set all the way to [W].
● When you zoom into a subject close to the lens, the camera may automatically zoom
out depending on the distance to the subject. In this case, set [TELE MACRO] to [ON].
