Using the zoom feature

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.
“T” side: for telephoto (subject appears closer)
“W” side: for wide-angle (subject appears farther away)

If you cannot get a sharp focus, move the power zoom lever to the “W”
side until the focus is sharp. You can shoot a subject that is at least about
25 cm (FD83)/90 cm (FD88) away from the lens surface in the telephoto
position, or about 25 cm away in the wide-angle position. When the
subject is too close to focus on, refer to p. 28.
