OPERATION: Zoom In Slide the Power Zoom Lever towards "T". Zoom Out Slide the Power Zoom Lever towards "W". Ⅲ The further you slide the Power Zoom Lever, the quicker the zoom action. NOTES: ● Focusing may become unstable during Zooming. In this case, set the zoom while in Record-Standby, lock the focus by using the manual focus (੬ pg. 25), then zoom in or out in Record mode. ● In Full Auto mode (when the Power Switch is set to " "), zoom magnification of up to 64X is possible. In Manual mode (when the Power Switch is set to " "), zooming is possible to a maximum of 400X, or 16X magnification offered by optical zoom. ● Zoom magnification of over 16X is done through digital image processing, and is therefore called Digital Zoom. ● During Digital Zoom, the quality of the image may suffer. ● Digital Zoom cannot be used while functions done through digital image processing (Picture Wipe/ Dissolve function, ੬ pg. 22, Video Echo, ੬ pg. 24, etc.) are activated. ● Macro shooting (as close as approx. 5 cm (2") to the subject) is possible when the Power Zoom Lever is set all the way to "W".
