To counter problems with very bright
highlights
If the subject is too bright, the iris may close too
much, leaving the overall image dark, or the
highlights may be blown out. In such cases,
setting the highlight clip function on reduces the
luminance range, avoiding problems from the
automatic iris correction.
Set OPERATION >Auto Iris >Clip High Light in
the setup menu to On.
Zooming
The lens supplied with the PMW-320K allows
you to shoot with manual and servo zooming.
Switching between Zoom Modes
Set the ZOOM switch to SERVO (servo zoom) or
MANU (manual zoom).
Using Manual Zoom
With the ZOOM switch set to MANU, turn the
zoom ring.
Using Servo Zoom
With the ZOOM switch set to SERVO, operate
the power zoom lever. The current lens zoom
position appears in the viewfinder, over the range
0 (wide-angle) to 99 (telephoto) (see page 30).
Push to the W (wide) side when you want wide-
angle, and push to the T (telephoto) side when
you want telephoto. The zoom speed increases
when you push the lever deeply, and decreases
when you push less deeply.
