Focusing may become unstable when you record with a fast zoom or
zoom into a subject standing too far away. If this occurs, use the manual

The minimum distance you can have between the camcorder and subject
while maintaining sharp focus is about 1cm (about 0.4 inches) for wide
angle and about 1m (about 40 inches) for telephoto. If you want to shoot
the subject close to the lens at a wide angle, use the Tele Macro function.
