and 2200x digital zoom.
ZOOMING
To zoom in
Slide the Zoom lever towards T (telephoto).
(Or press the Control (Up) button on the LCD panel.)
To zoom out
Slide the Zoom lever towards W (wide-angle).
(Or press the Control (Down) button on the LCD panel.)
Zoom magnification over 65x is done through digital image processing, and is therefore called digital zoom. Digital zooming is possible up to 2200x. Set “
Zoom Type” to “Digital Zoom.” page 62
To maintain sharp focus, the minimum possible distance between the camcorder and subject is about 1cm (about 0.39 inch) for wide-angle and 1m
(about 39.4 inches) for telephoto.
Optical zoom preserves image quality, but the image quality may suffer when you use digital zoom.
Fast zooming or zooming in a subject that is a good distance away may cause the camcorder to focus slowly. If this occurs, use “Manual Focus.”
page 56
We recommend you use Anti-Shake (HDIS) for handheld recording when the subject is zoomed in and enlarged.
Frequent use of the zoom function consumes more power.
If you zoom when recording, the camcorder may record the sound of the zoom lever or zoom button operating.
When you use the zoom function, you can decrease its speed by slowly moving the Zoom (T/W) lever. Moving the lever quickly increases the zoom speed.
However, you cannnot use the Zoom (T/W) button on the display to adjust the zoom speed.
