Using the Zoom Function
If you use the Z (Wide angle)/ z (Telephoto) button, you
can alter the size of the subject in your photo without
having to change your distance from it.
By pressing the Z button, the field in the LCD monitor
and the viewfinder becomes wider. By pressing the z
button, the subject you see in the LCD monitor and the
viewfinder becomes larger.
1. With the camera ready to shoot,
press the Z button or the z
button.
You can check the Zoom status on the
Zoom Bar of the LCD monitor.
2. Compose your picture and half-
press the shutter release button.
3. Press the shutter release button
all the way.
Note
Using the Digital Zoom
Digital zooming enables you to enlarge the subject more than the maximum magnification
(x4.8) that can be specified by pressing the z (Telephoto) button (up to x3.6).
For digital zooming, release the z button once when the zoom reaches the limit on the z
(Tele) end on the Zoom Bar, and then hold the button down again.
