[Step Zoom]
You can set the zoom operation to allow easy visualization of the angle of view (picture
angle) for the focal length of a regular fixed focal length lens (as with a 35 mm film
camera). When using the Step Zoom, you can operate the zoom ratio as easily as
changing the camera lens.
• If recording in [Intelligent Auto] Mode, you can adjust the [Step Zoom] with the control
ring/control dial.
If the setting assigned to the control ring/control dial is [Step Zoom], [Step Zoom] will
also be available for use in other modes. (→134)
Turn the control ring or control dial
(In [Program AE] mode, the control ring is assigned to [Step Zoom].)
