NOTES
When
this
option
is
selected,
the
camcorder
will
switch
to
digital
zoom
(light
blue
area
on
the
zoom
indicator)
when
you
zoom
in
beyond
the
optical
zoom
range
(white
area
on
the
zoom
indicator).
With
the
digital
zoom
the
image
is
processed
digitally
so
image
quality
will
deteriorate
the
more
you
zoom
in.
The
camcorder uses a variable bit rate
(VBR)
when encoding the video data so the
actual recording times will vary depending
.
on
the content of the scenes.
