digital zoom, activated by holding down the zoom-in switch
when the camera is at maximum zoom, images recorded at
this setting will be slightly “grainy.” Unlike ordinary digital
zoom, however, at this setting digital zoom remains in effect
while the camera is zoomed in or out, making it possible to
frame photographs using the zoom switch. While this setting
is in effect and the selector dial is set to M-REC, the zoom
indicator in the color LCD monitor and the green autofocus
lamp will blink.

Because the viewfinder does not reflect the effects of digital
zoom, it is recommended that you frame photographs in the
monitor when digital zoom is in effect. Digital zoom is only
in effect when the color LCD monitor is on. Turning the
monitor off by pressing the MONITOR button returns the
camera to ordinary optical zoom mode. Digital zoom will be
restored when the monitor is turned on once more.

FISHEYE

When this option is selected, the combination of camera
settings most appropriate for using the fish-eye lens adapter
(sold separately) is put into effect: zoom is set to the widest
possible angle, focus is set to “Infinity” (

) the flash is set

to “Flash Cancel,” and center-weighted metering is used.
These settings cannot be changed while this option is in
effect and the selector dial is set to M-REC, during which
time a

icon will be shown in the color LCD monitor.

WIDEADAPTER

When this option is selected, camera settings are set to the
values most appropriate for using the wide-angle lens adapter
(sold separately): zoom is set to the widest possible angle
and the flash is set to “Flash Cancel.” These settings cannot
be changed while this option is in effect and the selector dial
is set to M-REC, during which time a

icon will be shown

in the color LCD monitor.
