The minimum possible distance between the camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp focus
is about 0.39 inch (1cm) for wide-angle and about 39.4 inches (1m) for telephoto.
Optical zoom preserves image quality, but during digital zoom the image quality may suffer.
Fast zooming or zooming in subject at a far distance may produce slow focusing. If this occurs,
use “Manual Focus.”

It is recommended to use Anti-Shake (HDIS) with handheld recording if the subject is zoomed in
and enlarged.
Frequent use of the zoom function consumes more power.
Zooming during a recording may record operation sound of the zoom lever or zoom button.
When using the zoom function, its speed can be decreased by slowly moving the Zoom (W/T) lever.
A fast moving increases the zoom speed. However, the Zoom (W/T) button on the display cannot
adjust the zoom speed.
