Shooting Features
Using the Zoom
When you move the zoom control, the zoom lens position
changes.
• To zoom in: Move toward g
• To zoom out: Move toward f
• Rotating the zoom control all the way in either direction
adjusts the zoom quickly (except during movie
recording).
• The zoom can also be operated by moving the side zoom
control toward g or f.
The function of the side zoom control can be set in the
Assign side zoom control (A173) in the setup menu.
• The zoom indicator and focal length (in 35mm [135]
format) are displayed on the shooting screen when the
zoom control is moved.
• Digital zoom, which allows you to further magnify the
subject up to approximately 4× the maximum optical
zoom ratio, can be activated by moving and holding the
zoom control toward g when the camera is zoomed in to the maximum optical
zoom position.
• When using the ML-L7 Remote Control (available separately), the camera zooms in
when you press the + button on the remote control, and zooms out when you
press the – button.
B Notes About Digital Zoom When Recording Movies
• The zoom indicator is not displayed while recording a movie.
• If you keep zooming while recording a movie, zooming stops at the position where
optical zoom switches to digital zoom. To continue zooming, briefly release your finger
from the zoom control before resuming operation of the zoom control.
• The zoom ratio of the digital zoom is limited to approximately 3.6× when Movie options
(A150) is set to 2160/30p (4K UHD) or 2160/25p (4K UHD) while recording a movie.
C Digital Zoom
The zoom indicator changes to blue when the digital zoom is activated, and it changes to
yellow when the zoom magnification is increased further.
• Zoom indicator is blue: Image quality is not noticeably reduced by using the Dynamic Fine
Zoom.
• Zoom indicator is yellow: There may be cases in which image quality is noticeably reduced.
• The indicator remains blue across a wider area when the image size is smaller.
• The zoom indicator may not change to blue when using certain continuous shooting
settings or other settings.
