Zooming
While recording
● You can zoom in up to 28X* / 34X by using the
optical zoom.
● Zoom magnification over 28X* / 34X is done
through digital image Digital zooming is possible
up to 800X. Set (ZOOM) to [56X]* / [68X] or
[800X]. (墌 pg. 25)
* For GR-D720EK only
NOTES:
● Macro shooting is possible as close as approx.
5 cm to the subject when the zoom lever is set all
the way to W.
● When you zoom into a subject close to the lens,
the camera may automatically zoom out
depending on the distance to the subject. In this
case, set
“TELE MACRO” to “ON”. (墌 pg. 25)
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 in
the most convenient
direction. It can
rotate 270°
(90° downward,
180° upward).
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 180° so
that it faces
forward. Then, pull
out the viewfinder
fully.
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.
● If the Quick Review
(墌 pg. 18) is executed during
the interface- shooting, the LCD monitor will be
turned off. In such a case, check the playback
picture in the viewfinder.
● To check the playback picture in the LCD monitor,
close the viewfinder.
