Extra Optical Zoom mechanism
When you set the picture size to [ ] (3 million pixels), the 10M (10.1 million pixels) CCD
area is cropped to the centre 3M (3 million pixels) area, allowing a picture with a higher
zoom effect.
Note
The indicated zoom magnification is an approximation.
“EZ” is an abbreviation of “Extra Optical Zoom”.
The Optical Zoom is set to Wide (1k) when the camera is turned on.
Zoom position is as when the power was turned off if the [ZOOM RESUME] (P34) is set to
[ON].
If you use the Zoom function after focusing on the subject, focus on the subject again.
The lens barrel extends or retracts according to the zoom position. Take care not to interrupt
the motion of the lens barrel while the zoom lever is rotated.
When using the Digital Zoom, [STABILIZER] may not be effective.
When using the Digital Zoom, we recommend using a tripod and the Self-timer (P74) for taking
pictures.
In the following cases, [i.ZOOM] is fixed to [ON].
