Zooming In Closer on Subjects (Digital Zoom)

When distant subjects are too far away to enlarge using optical zoom,
use digital zoom for up to about 40x (

ELPH 150 IS

IXUS 155

) or 32x (

ELPH 140 IS

IXUS 150

ELPH 135

IXUS 145

) enlargement.

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 (

=

36

), the maximum zoom factor can be achieved by

following step 1.

Zoomed images may look grainy under some resolution settings
(

=

36

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

in blue.
