Taking Pictures with
the Zoom
You can make people and objects appear
closer and landscapes can be recorded in
wide angle with the 3.6k optical zoom.
(35 mm film camera equivalent 28 mm to
100 mm) To make subjects appear even
closer (maximum of 5.7k), do not set the
picture size to the highest setting for each
aspect ratio ( / / ).
∫ To make subjects appear closer use
(Tele)
Rotate the zoom lever towards
Tele.
∫ To make subjects appear further away
use (Wide)

∫ Extended optical zoom mechanism
When you set the picture size to [ ]
(3M EZ) (3 million pixels), the 8M
(8.1 million pixels) 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 (1k)
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 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.
