You can magnify images up to 25 times the
original size with the power zoom lever or
the zoom buttons on the LCD frame.
Move the power zoom lever slightly for a
slower zoom. Move it further for a faster
zoom.
b Notes
• [STEADYSHOT] may not reduce image
blurring as desired when the power zoom lever
is set to the T (Telephoto) side.
• Be sure to keep your finger on the power zoom
lever. If you move your finger off the power
zoom lever, the operation sound of the power
zoom lever may also be recorded.
• You cannot change the zoom speed with the
zoom buttons on the LCD frame.
• The minimum possible distance between
camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp
focus is about 1 cm (about 13/32 in.) for wide
angle and about 80 cm (about 2 5/8 feet) for
telephoto.
z Tips
• You can set [DIGITAL ZOOM] (p. 41) if you
want to zoom to a level greater than 25 ×.

b Notes
• The NightShot plus and Super NightShot plus
functions use infrared light. Therefore, do not
cover the infrared port with your fingers or other
objects. Remove the conversion lens (optional)
if it is attached.
• Adjust the focus manually ([FOCUS], p. 39)
when it is hard to focus automatically.
• Do not use the NightShot plus and Super
NightShot plus functions in bright places. This
may cause a malfunction.
z Tips
• To record an image brighter, use Super
NightShot plus function (p. 40). To record an
image more faithfully to the original colors, use
Color Slow Shutter function (p. 40).
