Taking Pictures with the Zoom
You can make people and subjects appear
closer with the 4 times optical zoom, and
landscapes can be recorded in wide angle.
(35 mm film camera equivalent: 28 mm to
112 mm when the aspect ratio is set to
[j])
n To make subjects appear closer use
(Tele)
Rotate the zoom lever towards Tele.
When the setting for picture size is [ ]
(10M)
n To make subjects appear further away
use (Wide)
Rotate the zoom lever towards Wide.
When the setting for picture size is [ ]
(10M).
• The optical zoom is set to Wide (1×) when
the camera is turned on.
• Depending on the zoom magnification,
the picture may have some distortion.
Distortion will be more visible when using
a wider area of the zoom lens as you
move closer to the subject.
• Depending on the zoom magnification,
the picture may have some colored
fringes around the subject. This is called
chromatic aberration.
• If you use the zoom function after focusing
on the subject, focus on the subject again.
• The indicated zoom magnification is an
approximation.
• The lens barrel (P10) 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 [
i], the zoom
magnification is fixed to the value set at
the start of recording.
• When you rotate the zoom lever, you
may hear some sound from the camera
or the camera may be shaken. This is
not a malfunction.
