Using a Zoom Lens
Use the zoom ring to zoom in on the subject so that it fills a larger area
of the frame, or zoom out to increase the area visible in the final photo-
graph (select longer focal lengths on the lens focal length scale to
zoom in, shorter focal lengths to zoom out).

Zoom ring
If you are using an optional lens with a power
drive zoom switch, select T to zoom in and W
to zoom out. The speed with which the cam-
era zooms in and out varies with how far you
slide the switch. The zoom position is shown
by the zoom guide in the display.

Face Priority
The camera detects and focuses on portrait
subjects (face priority). A double yellow bor-
der will be displayed if a portrait subject is
detected facing the camera (if multiple faces,
up to a maximum of five, are detected, the
camera will select the closest subject). Press
the shutter-release button halfway to focus
on the subject in the double yellow border. The border will clear from
the display if the camera can no longer detect the subject (because, for
example, the subject has looked away).
