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 when you record moving images. T side: for telephoto (subject appears closer) W side: for wide-angle (subject appears farther away) Digital zoom starts to function when zoom exceeds 5.
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 31 1/2 (80 cm) away from the lens surface in the telephoto position, or about 19 3/4 inch (50 cm) away in the wide-angle position. When the subject is too close to focus on, refer to page 32.
The picture quality deteriorates as you go toward the T side. Set DIGITAL ZOOM to OFF in the MENU settings. Otherwise the digital zoom activates without notice (page 52). Digital zoom does not work for moving images. The optical zoom works up to 5.

We cannot assure all the recommended Windows and Macintosh environments mentioned before.
When the cables are connected to both the USB jack and the serial jack, the jack connected before the other one works. Disconnect the cable from one jack to make the other one available.
Communications between your camera and your personal computer may not recover after recovering from Suspend, Resume, or Sleep.
Use the AC power adaptor/charger when your connect your camera to your personal computer. A malfunction such as a data error may occur since the battery discharges during communications.
When using the Macintosh, connect the USB cable after your personal computer starts.
The Macintosh may become unstable if you delete the data in Memory Stick right after copying the data to the hard disk.
You may not be able to copy the whole of 100 msdcf folder at once to the hard disk on the Macintosh. In this case, open the 100 msdcf folder first, and copy the contents in the folder.
Notes on Using the PC Card Adaptor or USB Cable
Set the LOCK switch on the Memory Stick to off.
To play back an MPEG file, install Active Movie Player (Direct Show) or Media Player.
For playing back a file recorded in MOVIE or VOICE mode, first copy it to the hard disk of your personal computer. If you play back the file from a Memory Stick, the picture and sound may break off.
