Using the Optical Zoom
Use Optical Zoom to get up to 10X closer to your subject. Optical zoom is
effective when the lens is no closer than 2.2 ft (.67 m) from the subject. When
you turn on the camera, the lens extends to the Wide Angle position. The lens
retracts when you turn off the camera.
1 Push the Zoom button toward T
(Telephoto) to zoom in. Push toward W
(Wide Angle) to zoom out. To zoom more
quickly, push further.
The EVF or LCD screen displays the
zoomed image and the zoom indicator.
The zoom indicator disappears 5 seconds
after you stop zooming.
2 Press the Shutter button half-way and hold to set the exposure and
focus, then press the rest of the way down to take the picture.
Using the Advanced Digital Zoom
Use Advanced Digital Zoom to get an additional 3.0X magnification beyond
Optical Zoom; available settings are from 12X to 30X.
IMPORTANT: You may notice a decrease in printed image quality
when using Digital Zoom.
1 Push the Zoom button to the T (Telephoto) Optical Zoom limit. Release the
button, then push it again.
The EVF or LCD screen displays the zoomed image and the zoom
indicator. The zoom indicator remains on the screen during digital
zoom.
2 Press the Shutter button half-way and hold to set the exposure and
focus, then press the rest of the way down to take the picture.
