Using the Zoom

When you move the zoom control, the zoom
lens position changes.
To zoom in closer to the subject: Move

toward

g (telephoto)

To zoom out and view a larger area: Move

toward

f (wide-angle)

Rotating the zoom control all the way in

either direction adjusts the zoom quickly.

A zoom indicator is displayed at the top of

the monitor when the zoom control is moved.

Digital zoom, which allows you to further

magnify the subject up to approximately 4× the
maximum optical zoom ratio, can be activated
by moving and holding the zoom control
toward

g when the camera is zoomed in to the

maximum optical zoom position.
