[Digital Zoom]: Determines the operation of the digital zoom. The color of the indicator indicates the zoom. • When activated, the cam- corder will switch automatically to digital zoom when you zoom in beyond the optical zoom range. • With the digital zoom the image is digitally processed, so the image resolution will deteriorate the more you zoom in. Optical zoom Digital zoom White Light Dark blue blue Up to 18x* 18x* - 60x 60x 300x * 15x when [Image Stabilizer] is set to [Q Standard] or [j Off]. [AF Mode]: Select how fast the autofocus will operate. • With [R Instant AF] the autofocus adjusts quickly to a new subject. This is convenient for example when changing the focus from a near subject to a far subject in the background, or when recording moving subjects. • When the optional Wide-converter or Tele-converter is attached to the camcorder, it may partially obstruct the Instant AF sensor. Set the AF mode to [S Normal AF]. • When the recording program is set to [r Underwater] or [s Surface], the AF mode is automatically set to [S Normal AF]. [Focus Priority]: When the focus priority is activated, the camcorder records a photo only after the focus has been adjusted automatically. You can also select which AF frames to use. [U AiAF Frames]: One or more AF frames out of the nine frames avail- able are automatically selected and the focus is fixed on them. [W Center Frame]: A single focusing frame appears in the center of the screen and the focus is automatically fixed on it. [B Off]: No AF frame will appear and the photo will be recorded immediately after you press j. • When the recording program is set to [M Fireworks], focus priority is automatically set to [B Off]. • When focus priority is activated, if face detection (0 66) is also acti- vated, the camcorder will focus on the face of the main subject (white face-detection frame) when one is detected. [Focus Assistance]: When focus assistance is activated, the image at the center of the screen is magnified to help you focus manually (0 74). 152 Additional Information
