Zooming In and Out
Zoom works in CAMERAmode only.
Zooming is a recording technique that lets you change the size of the subject in the picture. For more professional looking record-
ings, do not use the zoom function too often.
You can also choose from two zoom speeds to suit different needs :
Gradual zoom (9~12 seconds from TELE/WIDE to WIDE/TELE)
High-Speed zoom (3~6 seconds from TELE/WIDE to WIDE/TELE)
Use these features for different shots; please note that overuse of the zoom feature can lead to unprofessional looking results and a
reduction of battery pack usage time.
1. Move the zoom lever a little for a gradual zoom, move it further for a
high-speed zoom.
Your zooming is monitored on the OSD.
2. T (Telephoto) side:
Subject appears closer.
3. W (Wide angle) side:
Subject appears further away.
Note:
MACRO
If you cannot obtain sharp focus in telephoto zoom, move the lever to the W side until the focus sharpens.
You can record a subject that is at least 1 mm away from the lens surface in the wide angle position.
