How to use your zoom lens for the best results
The AZ-4 Zoom is a compact camera equipped with a 35 ~ 135mm zoom lens. The zoom lens is a
lens that moves, and allows you to alter the focal distance. With the AZ-4 Zoom, you can change
the focal distance from 35mm to 135mm. This allows the photographer to change the composition
of a photo through zooming while remaining in the same location, such as in the case of focusing in
on a single member of a large group. This is a camera with a large amount of mobility which offers
a wide range of photographic potential. Using only this single lens, it is the equivalent of having a
number of interchangeable lenses with you at all times. Take advantage of your zoom lens and see
what it can do for you.
The zooming operations are carried out through the zoom lever on the camera grip. By operating
the zoom lens, the LCD panel will display the focal distance for approx. 2 seconds. Use this as your
standard for zooming photography. Now let's take a look at some of the pictures you can take with
your AZ-4 Zoom.
• 35mm Wide-angle. This is achieved by retracting your super zoom lens. The photo format is wide
and the depth of field with regard to the subject is deep, leading to a clear contrast and sharp
close-up pictures.
• 70mm Pictures taken under medium zooming conditions. In spite of the longer focal distance from
the camera to the subject, the pictures are clear. The subjects are only half the size of those in
pictures taken under 35mm conditions. The exaggeration found in close-ups is lessened and your
pictures will seem more natural, less posed. You can use the 70mm position for snapshots,
portraits, scenery and a wide variety of other photographic objectives.
