The focal length of the lens can be increased by approximately 1.6x or
2.0x. This can reduce camera shake because the shutter speed is faster
than it would be if you zoomed (including using digital zoom) in to the
same zoom factor.
Press the [
] button, choose
[Digital Zoom] on the [
] tab, and then
choose the desired option (
=
29).
The view is enlarged and the zoom factor
is displayed on the screen.
The digital tele-converter cannot be used with digital zoom
(
=
38) or AF-point zoom (
=
52).
The shutter speed may be equivalent when you move the zoom
lever all the way toward [
] for maximum telephoto, and when
you zoom in to enlarge the subject to the same size following step
2 in “Zooming In Closer on Subjects (Digital Zoom)” (
=
38).
When you focus manually, the AF frame mode (
=
75) is locked
to [Center] and AF frame size is locked to [Normal].
Focusing is possible when using the digital zoom (
=
38) or
digital tele-converter (
=
74), or when using a TV as a display
(
=
148), but the magnified display will not appear.
To focus more accurately, try attaching the camera to a tripod to
stabilize it.
To hide the magnified display area, choose MENU (
=
29) >
[
] tab > [MF-Point Zoom] > [Off].
To deactivate automatic focus fine-tuning when the shutter button
is pressed halfway, choose MENU (
=
29) > [
] tab > [Safety
MF] > [Off].
