• You can zoom with the zoom lever or the Control (W/T) 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 63

• The minimum possible distance between the camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp focus

is about 0.39 inch (lcm) for wide angle and about 39.4 inches (1m) for telephoto,

• Optical zoom preserves image quality, but during digital zoom the image quality may suffer.

• Fast zooming or zooming in subject at a far distance may produce slow focusing. Ifthis occurs,

use "Manual Focus." '-,page 58

• It is recommended to use Anti-Shake (HDIS) with handheld recording if the subject is zoomed in

and enlarged.

• Frequent use of the zoom function consumes more power,

• Zooming during a recording may record operation sound of the zoom lever or zoom button.

• When using the zoom function, its speed can be decreased by slowly moving the Zoom (W/T) lever.

A fael moving increases the zoom speed, However, the Zoom (W/T) button on the display cannot

adjuel the zoom speed.
