Digital Zoom
Digital zoom digitally enlarges the part of the image at the
center of the image screen. The range of digital zoom is 3X
to 12X (in combination with optical zoom).
IMPORTANT!
When you perform a digital zoom operation, the
camera manipulates the image data to enlarge the
center of the image. Unlike optical zoom, an image
enlarged with digital zoom appears coarser than the
original.
To record an image using digital zoom
1.
In the REC mode,
hold down the
telephoto ( ) side of
the zoom button.
This causes the zoom
indicator to appear on
the display.
2.
When the zoom pointer reaches the optical/
digital zoom switch over point, it will stop.
The above shows what the zoom indicator looks like
when digital zoom is turned on (page 60). The digital
zoom range is not displayed when digital zoom is
turned off.
