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

the zoom position). The zoom bar is color-coded to indicate 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 recording pixel

settings (

=

34

), the maximum zoom factor can be achieved by

following step 1.

Zoomed images may look grainy under some recording pixel

settings (

=

34

) and zoom factors. In this case, the zoom factor is

shown in blue.
