Recording modes:
You can determine how much of a subject is to be captured / how large a subject is to be
rendered by selecting the appropriate focal length, i.e. by zooming.
Zooming In/Out
To widen the angle of view,
use shorter focal lengths
(hence wideangle, also makes
subjects appear further away)
To make subjects appear
closer use longer focal lengths
(telephoto, also narrows the
angle of view)
• The zooming speed is determined by how far the zoom lever is turned in the
respective direction.
