Zoom bar
The white part of the zoom bar
indicates the optical zoom (up to
5.0 ×); the green part of the zoom
bar indicates the super resolution
zoom (up to 2.0 ×). When using the
super resolution zoom, the C symbol
appears on the picture display and
the zoom ratio is displayed in green.
The super resolution zoom allows you to enlarge the subject with less
image deterioration.

The super resolution zoom is enabled when the [Normal] option is selected for
[Digital Zoom Image] (GP.82) in the setup menu (GP.78).
Using the Digital Zoom -------------------------------------------------------------
Depending on the shooting mode and the options
selected in the shooting menu, you may be able to zoom
in further on your subject when the zoom bar display
reaches the border of the portion shown in yellow. After
releasing the zoom lever, select z to zoom in on your
subject using digital zoom (GP.57).
