Using the Zoom Rockers
To use the handle's zoom rocker, attach the handle unit to the camcorder in advance (A 22).
Move the zoom rocker on the camcorder or handle unit
toward T (wide angle) to zoom out. Move it toward S

variable speed. You can also set it to a constant speed and select
the zoom speed.
• The zoom rocker on the handle can operate only at a constant
speed that you can select.
