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 (
=
28).
●
The view is enlarged and the zoom factor
is displayed on the screen.
●
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)” (
=
37).

follows.
●
Press the [
] button, choose [AF
Frame] on the [

the desired option (

●
When you focus manually, the AF frame mode (

settings cannot be changed.
●
Focusing is possible when using the digital zoom (
=

(
=
142), but the magnified display will not appear.
●
