Using the zoom feature
Move the power zoom lever a little for a slower zoom. Move it
further for a faster zoom.
Using the zoom function sparingly results in better-looking recordings when you
record moving images.
“T” side: for telephoto (subject appears closer)
“W” side: for wide-angle (subject appears farther away)
Digital zoom starts to function when zoom exceeds 5×.
If you cannot get a sharp focus, move the power zoom lever to the “W” side until the
focus is sharp. You can shoot a subject that is at least about 31 1/2 (80 cm) away from
the lens surface in the telephoto position, or about 19 3/4 inch (50 cm) away in the
wide-angle position. When the subject is too close to focus on, refer to page 32.
The picture quality deteriorates as you go toward the “T” side. Set
DIGITAL ZOOM to OFF in the MENU settings. Otherwise the digital zoom activates
without notice (page 52).
Digital zoom does not work for moving images. The optical zoom works up to ×5.
The right side of the bar shows
the digital zooming zone.
