SHOOTING
ENGLISH
Shooting techniques for different targets
For shooting at a low angle, you can use the START/
STOP button on the handle.
The recording operation of this button can be set using
the HANDLE S/S INHIBIT item on the SW MODE
screen. (P69)
To check what you have shot straight away, conduct a
rec check (P12).
To find specific scenes among the ones that you have
shot so far, conduct an image search while the shoot-
ing pause mode is established.
Image search comes in handy when you want to con-
tinue shooting from a particular scene you have found
(shooting with frame-to-frame continuity).
1 In the shooting pause mode, hold down the y or
t button.
While the button is held down, the tape is played
back in the forward or reverse direction.
2 When you have found the scene you are looking
for, release the button.
Upon completion of the image search, operation
returns to the shooting pause mode.
This camera-recorder comes with a ×16 optical zoom.
Press the main unit's ZOOM buttons gently for slow
zooming; press them more forcefully for fast zooming.
The zoom speed resulting when the buttons are
pressed gently can be set using the ZOOM MODE item
(P69) on the SW MODE screen.
You can change the zoom speed for the HANDLE
ZOOM with the ZOOM SPEED switch. When you are
not using the HANDLE ZOOM, in the HANDLE ZOOM
item, select “L/OFF/H” and set ZOOM SPEED SW to
“OFF/M”.
The digital zoom function is made operational by press-
ing the DIGITAL ZOOM button in the shooting pause
mode.
When “×24” is selected as the D.ZOOM item (P69) set-
ting on the SW MODE screen, the digital zoom function
works at the following magnification levels each time
this button is pressed: ×1.25 ×1.5 ×1 (OFF).
Zooming at a maximum level of k24 is possible at this
setting.
If, on the other hand, “×160” is selected as the item’s
setting, the digital zoom function works at the following
magnification levels each time this button is pressed:
×2 ×5 ×10 ×1 (OFF). Zooming at a maximum
level of ×160 is possible at this setting.
The zoom position is displayed at all times at the top
right of the screen, and the magnification level of the
digital zoom also appears when the digital zoom func-
tion is working. (P59)
The magnification level cannot be changed during
shooting.
When shooting with the digital zoom function, you
cannot obtain the same image quality as you can with
normal (optical) zooming.
When “ZOOM” has been selected as the FOCUS RING
item setting on the SW MODE screen using the menus
(
P62-64), zooming operations can be performed using
the focus ring but only when shooting in the auto focus
mode. (
