Taking pictures and videos

Using optical zoom
Use optical zoom to get up to 3X closer to your subject. Optical zoom is
effective when the lens is no closer than 23.6 in. (60 cm) to the subject or 5.1
in. (13 cm) in Close-up mode. You can change optical zoom before (but not
during) video recording.
1 Use the viewfinder or camera screen to frame
your subject.
2 Press Telephoto (T) to zoom in. Press Wide
Angle (W) to zoom out.
3 Press the Shutter button halfway and hold to set the exposure and
focus, then press the rest of the way down to take the picture. (When
taking videos, press and release the Shutter button.)
Using digital zoom
Use digital zoom in any Still mode to get an additional 3.3X magnification
beyond optical zoom. Combined zoom settings are from 3.3X to 10X in 0.3
increments. You must turn on the camera screen to activate digital zoom.
1 If the camera screen is off, press the OK button to turn it on.
2 Press the Telephoto (T) button to the optical zoom limit (3X). Release the
button, then press it again.
The camera screen displays the zoomed image, the zoom value, and the digital
zoom icon.
3 Press the Shutter button halfway and hold to set the exposure and
focus, then press the rest of the way down to take the picture.
NOTE: You cannot use digital zoom for video recording.
IMPORTANT:
You may notice a decrease in printed image quality when using
digital zoom.
