the menu system,
The AUTO DATE feature shows the date automatically once a day. However, the date
may automatically appear more than once a day when:
- you reset the date and time.
- you eject and insert the cassette again.
- you stop recording within 10 seconds.
Zoorning is a recording technique that lets you change the size of the subject in the
scene. For more professional-looking recordings, use the zoom sparingly.
T side: for telephoto (subject appears closer)
W side: for wide-angle (subject appears farther away)
Zooming speed (Variable speed zooming)
Turn the power zoom lever fully for a high-speed zoom. Turn it lightly for a relatively
slow zoom.
When you shoot a subject using a telephoto zoom
If you cannot get a sharp focus while in extreme telephoto zoom, move the power
zoom lever to the "W" side until the foc-us is sharp.
You can shoot a subject that is at least 2.6 feet (about 80 cm) away from the lens
surface in the telephoto position, or 1 / 2 inches (about 1 cm) in the wide-angle
position.
