Digital Tele-Converter
The focal length of the lens can be increased by approximately 1.5x or 2.0x.

would be if you zoomed (including using digital zoom) in to the same zoom
factor.

[Digital Zoom] on the [ 4] tab, and then
choose the desired option ( = 23 ).

is displayed on the screen.

( = 31 ) or AF-point zoom ( = 39 ).
• The respective focal lengths when using [1.5x] and [2.0x] are 36 – 1152 mm
and 48 – 1440 mm (35mm film equivalent).
• The shutter speed may be equivalent when you move the zoom lever all the
way toward < i> for maximum telephoto, and when you zoom in to enlarge
the subject to the same size following step 2 in “Zooming In Closer on Subjects
(Digital Zoom)” ( = 31 ).
