NOTE
The higher the digital zoom factor, the coarser the recorded image. Note that the
camera also has a function that lets you record using digital zoom without image
deterioration (page 48).
Use of a tripod is recommended to protect against image blur due to camera
movement when shooting with telephoto.
Performing a zoom operation changes the lens aperture.
Digital zoom only is available during movie recording. You can adjust the optical
zoom setting before you press [0] (Movie) to start movie recording.
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.
During zoom, a zoom bar on the monitor screen shows the current zoom setting.
An image deterioration icon (Ù) will appear on the monitor screen at the point
where image deterioration starts.
