Types of zooms
¢
1 When a picture size of [S] (3 M), aspect ratio of [
X
] is selected.
The magnification level differs depending on [PICTURE SIZE] and [ASPECT RATIO] setting.
¢
2 When recording quality setting [
] or [
] is selected. When recording quality setting
[

∫
Extended Optical Zoom mechanism
Example: When it is set to [
] (equal to 3.1 million pixels), it will take the picture using
the 3.1 million pixels in the center out of the 12 million pixels of the imaging device,
resulting to be more of a telephoto picture.
Note
•
“EZ” is an abbreviation of “Extended Optical Zoom”.
•
If you use the zoom function after focusing on the subject, focus on the subject again.
•
When using the Digital Zoom, [STABILIZER] may not be effective.
