Panasonic DMC-LS5 - Using zoom

- 18 - VQT3W70
Using zoom
Recording Mode:
“Optical Zoom” offers 5 x magnification. You can zoom in even closer without the loss of
picture quality by lowering the picture size and using “Extended Optical Zoom.”
For zooming in even closer, “Digital Zoom” (→46) is available.
●
Extended Optical Zoom system
When the recording pixel level is set to [3 M ] (corresponding to 3 million pixels),
3 million pixels of the available pixel level in the center of the CCD are used in
recording, enabling higher magnification.
●
The zoom ratio and the zoom bar displayed on the screen are estimates.
●
Extended Optical Zoom cannot be used in the following cases:

Optical Zoom.”)
