Digital Tele-Converter; Changing The Af Frame Mode; Shooting Range And Focusing - Canon POWERSHOT SX160 IS User Manual

Shooting Range and Focusing
The focal length of the lens can be increased by approximately 1.6x or 2.Ox.
This can reduce camera shake because the shutter speed is faster than it
would be if you zoomed (including using digital zoom) in to the same zoom
factor.
Press the
<MENU>
button, choose
[Digital Zoom] on the [O] tab, and then
choose the desired option (_38).
The view is enlarged and the zoom factor
is displayed on the screen.
(_ The digital tele-converter cannot be used with digital zoom
(_49) and AF-point zoom (_60).
The respective focal lengths when using [1.6x] and [2.0x] are 44.8 -
716.8 mm and 56.0 - 896.0 mm (35mm film equivalent).
The shutter speed may be equivalent when you move the zoom lever all the
way toward <F_3> for maximum telephoto, and when you zoom in to enlarge
the subject to the same size following step 2 on [._49.
Change the AF (auto focus) frame mode to suit the shooting conditions as
follows.
