Using the Zoom Feature
Zooming is a recording technique that lets you change the size of the subject in the scene. For more
professional-looking recordings, use the zoom sparingly.
T side: for telephoto (subject appears closer)
W side:for wide-angle (subject appears farther away)
Zooming Speed
Turn the power zoom lever fully for a high-speed zoom. Turn it lightly for a relatively slow zoom.
When you shoot a subject using a telephoto zoom
If you cannot get a sharp focus while in extreme telephoto zoom, turn the power zoom lever towards
the W side until the focus is sharp.
You can shoot a subject that is at least 2.6 feet (about 80 cm) away from the lens surface in the
telephoto position, or 1/2 inch (about 1 cm) in the wide-angle position.
Notes on Digital Zoom
You can select 12 x or 24 x of zooming.
• More than 12 x zoom is performed digitally, and the picture quality deteriorates as you go toward
the T side. If you do not want to use the digital zoom set the ZOOM function to x12 (p. 29).
• The right side [a] in the power zoom indicator shows the digital zooming zone, and the left side
[b] shows the opitical zooming zone. If you slide the ZOOM switch to x12, the [a] zone disappears.
