Move the power zoom lever a little for a slower zoom. Move it further for a faster zoom.

Using the zoom function sparingly results in better-looking recordings.

focus is sharp. You can shoot a subject that is at least about 80 cm (about 2 feet 5/8 in.)

away from the lens surface in the telephoto position, or about 1 cm (about 1/2 in.) away

in the wide-angle position.
