4.5. Adjusting Zoom Levels
To adjust zoom levels, use the zoom buttons located above the
Navigation pad on the back of the FieldView Device.
To adjust the zoom one step at a time, press and release the Minus (–)
button (zoom out) or the Plus (+) button (zoom in).
To adjust zoom levels at a faster rate, press and hold the Minus or Plus
button, and release it when the zoom level is where you need it.
The minimum focusing distance changes with the zoom level. As you zoom in,
the minimum focus distance moves out. For example, if you are close to an
object and zoom in on it, the object will become out of focus if you zoom in too
far. The focus adjusts automatically when zooming unless the FieldView Device
is in Manual Focus mode. See Focusing, next.
If you need to get very close to your subject, set the zoom level to 1×
(minimum zoom) and move the FieldView Device until you reach the desired
image size. This will ensure that you achieve the best focus.
4.6. Focusing
4.6.1. Automatic Focus
The FieldView Device normally operates in automatic focus mode and will focus
on subjects centered in the viewnder. Focus will continuously update as the
distance between the subject and the lens changes or as zoom is adjusted.
There are situations where manual control is desired to ne tune the focus,
particularly for objects not centered in the viewnder. Manual focus control is
described in the following section.
Note that zoom and focus controls are available regardless of whether the
Viewnder is currently displayed.
