Basic Photography and Playback
Step3 Frame a picture
1
Ready the camera.
Hold the camera steadily in both
hands, keeping your fingers and
other objects away from the lens,
flash, and microphone.
2
Frame the picture.
Frame the subject near the center of
the monitor.
Zoom
Use the button to frame the subject in the monitor. Press to zoom out,
increasing the area visible in the frame. Press to zoom in up to 3× so that the sub-
ject fills a larger area of the frame. Pressing for about two seconds at 3× zoom will
trigger digital zoom, allowing the subject to be magnified up to 4× more, for a total of
magnification of 12×. Note that unlike optical zoom, digital zoom does not increase
the amount of detail visible in the picture. Instead, details visible at 3× zoom are simply
enlarged, producing a slightly “grainy” image.
