Basic
Extended optical zoom mechanism
When you set the picture size to [[3_]]
(3M EZ) (3 million pixels), the 7M (7 million
pixels) (DMC-FX12)/6M (6 million pixels)
(DMC-FX10) CCD area is cropped to the
center 3M (3 million pixels) area, allowing a
picture with a higher zoom effect.
The optical zoom is set to Wide (1 ×)
when the camera is turned on.
If you use the zoom function after focusing
on the subject, focus on the subject again.
The lens barrel (P9) extends or retracts
according to the zoom position. Take care
not to interrupt the motion of the lens
barrel while the zoom lever is rotated.
In motion picture mode [_]_], the zoom
magnification is fixed to the value set at
the start of recording.
"EZ" is an abbreviation of
"Extended optical Zoom".
You can further enhance the zoom
magnification with the extended optical
zoom without worrying about further
picture distortion.
If you set a picture size that activates the
extended optical zoom, the extended
optical zoom icon [1"_ ] is displayed on the
screen when yeu use the zoom function.
The zoom will stop moving for an instant
near [W] (1×) when the extended optical
zoom is used. This is not a malfunction.
The indicated zoom magnification is an
approximation.
In motion picture mode [_] and
[HIGH SEN&] in scene mode, the
extended optical zoom does not work.
