For the best possible resolution while using
macro focus, be sure to shoot in a well-

DIGITAL ZOOM
The camcorder’s digital zoom feature automati-
cally doubles the magnification of telephoto
shots while you use variable speed power
zoom.
To use digital zoom, simply continue to press
and hold down
T
while you are zooming. As you
press and hold down
T
, the magnification dou-
bles and
ZOOM
appears above the indicator on
the left side of the viewfinder.
Notes:
The subject you are magnifying while using
digital zoom might appear coarse. This is
normal.
Since digital zoom exaggerates even the
slightest movement of the camcorder or
subject, we recommend that you set the
camcorder on a tripod while using digital
zoom.
