Snapshot Tutorial
• The image deterioration point
depends on the image size (page 24).
The smaller the image size, the higher
the zoom factor you can use before
reaching the image deterioration point.
• Though digital zoom generally causes
a deterioration of image quality, some
digital zoom without image
deterioration is possible with image
sizes of “6M” and smaller. The range
in which you can use digital zoom
without image deterioration is
indicated on the display. The
deterioration point depends on the
image size.
