Basic ■ How the extended optical zoom works The extended optical zoom works by extracting the center of the picture and expanding it for a higher telephoto effect. So, for example, if you choose [ ] (3M EZ) (3 million pixels), the 10M (10.1 million) (DMC-LZ10) or 8M (8.1 million) (DMC-LZ8) CCD area is cropped to the center 3M (3 million pixels) area, allowing a picture with a higher zoom effect. Using the easy zoom button Press the [E.ZOOM] button to quickly zoom. Actual zoom factors depend on the pixel recording setting. A A [E.ZOOM] button • The optical zoom is set to Wide (1 ×) when the camera is turned on. • When using the zoom function, an estimate of the focus range will appear in conjunction with the zoom display bar. (Example: 0.99 ft-Z) • If you use the zoom function after focusing on the subject, focus on the subject again. • The lens barrel extends or retracts according to the zoom position. Take care not to interrupt the motion of the lens barrel while the zoom lever is rotated. • In motion picture mode [i], the zoom magnification is fixed to the value set at the start of recording. • "EZ" is an abbreviation of "Extended optical Zoom". • If you set a picture size that activates the extended optical zoom, the extended optical zoom icon [ ] is displayed on the screen when you use the zoom function. • The zoom will stop moving for an instant near [W] (1 ×) when the extended optical zoom is used. This is not a malfunction. • The indicated zoom magnification is an approximation. • The extended optical zoom cannot be activated in the following modes. - Motion picture mode [i] - [HIGH SENS.] - [HI-SPEED BURST] ■ When the picture size is set to the highest resolution for each aspect ratio Resolution is temporarily reduced and you can use the extended optical zoom. 1W T 1 A 5 2 EZ W T 1 B C 3 EZ W T 1 C 1 Press [E.ZOOM] once. 2 Press [E.ZOOM] twice. 3 Press [E.ZOOM] three times.
