Zooming In Closer on Subjects (Digital Zoom)

Zoom Factor
•
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 (
=
50 ), the maximum zoom factor can be achieved by
following step 1.
•
Zoomed images may look grainy under some resolution settings
(
=
50 ) and zoom factors. In this case, the zoom factor is shown
in blue.
• To deactivate digital zoom, choose MENU ( = 26 ) > [ 4] tab > [Digital
Zoom] > [Off] (
=
26 ).
