CAMCORDER MOVEMENT

When you move the camcorder while recording,
do so slowly and steadily. Too much movement
or fast movement make your recordings look
awkward. A video camera tripod (such as Radio
Shack Cat. No. 16-2017, not supplied) is a
worthwhile investment for top-quality movie
making.

ZOOM IN AND ZOOM OUT

As with movement, too much use of the cam-
corder’s zoom features can detract from your re-
cordings. When you use variable speed power
zoom and/or digital zoom, it is best to zoom in or
zoom out in one smooth motion, not in several
jerky motions.

If you use them sparingly, movements from side
to side combined with zooms can be very effec-
tive in your video tapes.
