Using the optical zoom function does not degrade the image quality and clarity.

Use the digital zoom function when you want to zoom more than the optical zoom range. page 99

Focusing may become unstable when you record with a fast zoom or zoom into a subject standing too far away. If this occurs, use the manual focus function. (Video recording mode only) page 48

The minimum distance you can have between the camcorder and subject while maintaining sharp focus is about 1cm (about 0.4 inches) for wide angle and about 1m (about 40 inches) for telephoto. If you want to shoot the subject close to the lens at a wide angle, use the Tele Macro function. page 98

Frequent use of the zoom function consumes more power.

The camcorder can record the sound of the zoom mechanism.

The Zoom ( •The subject gets smaller and further away.  ) tab on the LCD screen moves slowly and the [Zoom (T/W)] button moves more quickly. Use the Zoom ( •The smallest zoom ratio is the subject’s original size in the zoom-out.  ) tab on the LCD screen to use the zoom function with accuracy.
