Types of zooms
• When using the zoom function, an estimate of the focus range will appear in conjunction
with the zoom display bar. (Example: 0.5 m (1.64 ft.) –)
¢The magnification level differs depending on [PICTURE SIZE] and [ASPECT RATIO] setting.
Extended optical zoom mechanism
When you set the picture size to [ ] (3 million pixels), the 12M (12.1 million pixels) CCD
area is cropped to the center 3M (3 million pixels) area, allowing a picture with a higher
zoom effect.
Note
The digital zoom cannot be set when õ has been selected.
The indicated zoom magnification is an approximation.
“EZ” is an abbreviation of “Extended Optical Zoom”.
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.
When using the digital zoom, [STABILIZER] may not be effective.
