Various Recording Techniques Hint You can also use the remote control for changing the maximum digital value. Each press of DIGITAL ZOOM switches the "Digital Zoom" setting as follows; "Off" → "40x" → "240x" (When using a card) "Off" ↔ "40x" Recording at close range During record pause or recording, point the camcorder at the subject and push the zoom lever toward the W side until the wide-angle is 1 maximized. • Recording up close may require more lighting. If the screen is dark, direct a light source at the subject. Notes • The maximum telephoto zoom is 40x when using a card even if "Digital Zoom" is set to "240x". • When operating the zoom lever, the focus may blur for a moment. • When digital zoom is added, the image quality will become coarser.

This will allow you to enlarge the subject to cover the entire screen. Note Although the zoom can be used, the focus may become blurred depending on the distance to the subject.
