Snapshot Tutorial
If you hold the zoom controller towards z (Telephoto), the zoom operation will stop
when the optical zoom factor reaches its maximum. Momentarily releasing the zoom
controller and then holding it again towards z (Telephoto) will switch to digital
zoom, which you can use to set an even higher zoom factor.
• If you do want to use digital zoom, change the “Digital Zoom” setting to “On” (page
84).
• During zoom, a zoom bar on the monitor screen shows the current zoom setting.
