Tape Remaining Time

Approximate tape remaining time appears on the
display. “– h – – m” means the camcorder is
calculating the remaining time. When the remaining
time reaches 2 minutes, the indication starts
blinking.

Zooming

Produces the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous
change in image magnification.

Zoom In
Press the “T” side on the Power Zoom Switch.
Zoom Out
Press the “W” side on the Power Zoom Switch.

● The further you press the Power Zoom Switch, the

quicker the zoom action.

NOTES:

Focusing may become unstable during Zooming.

In this case, set the zoom while in Record-
Standby, lock the focus by using the manual focus
(

pg. 47), then zoom in or out in Record mode.

Zooming is possible to a maximum of 200X, or it

can be switched to 10X magnification using the
optical zoom. (

pg. 36)

Zoom magnification of over 10X is done through

Digital image processing, and is therefore called
Digital Zoom.

During Digital zoom, the quality of image may

suffer.

Digital zoom cannot be used when the Recording

Mode Switch is set to “MEMORY” or “HD”.

Macro shooting (as close as approx. 5 cm (2”) to

the subject) is possible when the Power Zoom
Lever is set all the way to “W”. Also see “TELE
MACRO” in MANUAL Menu on page 37.

For other notes, pg. 69.

Journalistic Shooting

In some situations, different
shooting angles may provide
more dramatic results. Hold
the camcorder in the desired
position and tilt the LCD
monitor and the grip in the
most convenient direction.
The LCD monitor can rotate
270º (90º downward, 180º
upward). The grip can rotate
90º downward.

Interface Shooting

The person you shoot can view himself/herself in the
LCD monitor, and you can even shoot yourself while
viewing your own image in the LCD monitor.

1) Open the LCD monitor and tilt it upward to 180º

so that it faces forward.

● When the LCD monitor is tilted upward to an

angle of over approx. 105º, the monitor image
is inverted vertically. If the viewfinder is pulled
out at that time, it also switches on.

2) Point the lens toward the subject (yourself when

self-recording) and start recording.

● During Interface Shooting, the monitor image

appears inverted as it would when viewing a
mirror. However, the actual recorded image
does not appear inverted.
