If you lose track of a subject while zoomed in, you can find it more easily
by temporarily zooming out.
1
Look for the lost subject.
Press and hold the [
] button.
The camera zooms out and displays
a white frame around the area shown
before you pressed the [
] button.
2
Reacquire the subject.
Aim the camera so that the subject enters
the white frame, and then release the
[
] button.
The previous magnification is now
restored, so that the area within the white
frame fills the screen again.
