Moving the zoom lever will display the zoom bar (which indicates

the zoom position). The color of the zoom bar will change depending

on the zoom range.

-

White range: optical zoom range where the image will not appear

grainy.

-

Yellow range: digital zoom range where the image is not noticeably

grainy (ZoomPlus).

-

Blue range: digital zoom range where the image will appear grainy.

Because the blue range will not be available at some resolution

settings (

=

37

), the maximum zoom factor can be achieved by

following step 1.

Focal length when optical and digital zoom are combined is as follows (35mm

film equivalent).

24 – 2880 mm (24 – 720 mm with optical zoom alone)

To deactivate digital zoom, press the <

n> button, choose [Digital Zoom]

on the [

4] tab, and then choose [Off].

zoomed out.

During movie shooting, the white frame is not displayed if you press

the < > button. Also note that camera operating sounds such as

zooming will be recorded.
