Using the Zoom Function

Your camera has a combination of optical and

digital zoom functions that allow you to zoom in

on far away subjects or zoom out for a wide

angle shot.

The optical zoom is achieved by mechanically

adjusting the lens of the camera. The digital

zoom enlarges or shrinks the image using a

software process.

When the zoom lever is pressed, the zoom bar

appears on the LCD monitor.

Press [W] to zoom out for a wide-angle shot.

Press [T] to zoom in for a telephoto shot.

When the optical zoom factor is at maximum, zooming stops temporarily. Press the [T] again,

the camera switches to the digital zoom automatically and zooming continues.

Digital zoom works by enlarging the center portion of an image through a software

interpolation process. The digital zoom is used to achieve magnification levels up to approx.

4 times.

NOTE:

Digital zoom is unavailable when recording movies.
