BASIC RECORDING Recording On Tape And Memory Card
FEATURE: Zooming PURPOSE:

40x W T

To produce the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous change in image magnification.

OPERATION:

Zoom In Slide the Power Zoom Lever towards T. Zoom Out Slide the Power Zoom Lever towards W. The further you slide the Power Zoom Lever, the quicker the zoom action.
Focusing may become unstable during Zooming. In this case, set the zoom while in Record-Standby, lock the focus by using the manual focus ( pg. 24), then zoom in or out in Record mode. Zooming is possible to a maximum of 300X, or it can be switched to 10X magnification using the optical zoom ( pg. 29). Zoom magnification of over 10X is done through Digital image processing, and is therefore called Digital Zoom. During Digital zoom, the quality of image may suffer. Digital zoom cannot be used when the VIDEO/ MEMORY Switch is set to MEMORY ( pg. 14). 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. Also see TELE MACRO in the Menu Screen on page 30.

Iris Like the pupil of the human eye, it contracts in well-lit environments to keep too much light from entering, and dilates in dim environments to allow in more light.

White Balance Adjustment

A term that refers to the correctness of color reproduction under various lighting. If the white balance is correct, all other colors will be accurately reproduced. The white balance is usually adjusted automatically. However, more advanced camcorder operators control this function manually to achieve a more professional color/tint reproduction.

White balance cannot be used when Sepia or Monotone ( pg. 39) is activated.
In step 2, it may be difficult to focus on the white paper. In such a case, adjust focus manually ( pg. 24). A subject can be shot under various types of lighting conditions indoors (natural, flourescent, candlelight, etc.). Because the color temperature is different depending on the light source, the subject tint will differ depending on the white balance settings. Use this function for a more natural result. Once you adjust white balance manually, the setting is retained even if the power is turned off or the battery removed.
