Appendix

Some shooting information is not displayed while the camera is
zoomed out.

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

] button. Also note that a changed zoom factor and

camera operating sounds will be recorded.

If you prefer to shoot at the zoom factor of the screen in step 1,
press the shutter button all the way down.

You can adjust the zoom factor that the camera reverts to when
you release the [

] button by moving the zoom lever to resize

the white frame while you hold the [

] button.

To adjust the area displayed when the [

] button is pressed,

access MENU (= 29) > [

] tab > [

Display Area], and

choose one of the three options.

The zoom factor cannot be changed with the [

] button after

you press the shutter button all the way down in self-timer mode
(= 42).

To deactivate digital zoom, choose MENU (= 29) > [

] tab >

[Digital Zoom] > [Off].

If you lose track of a subject while zooming in, you can find it more easily

by temporarily zooming out.

Look for the lost subject.

Press and hold the [ ] button.

The camera zooms out and displays a

white frame around the area previously

shown (before you pressed the [ ]

button).

Reacquire the subject.

Aim the camera so that the subject enters

the white frame, and then release the

[ ] button.

The previous magnification is now

restored, so that the area within the white

frame fills the screen again.
