What is Extended Optical Zoom (EZ)?
If, for example, set to '3M ' (equivalent to 3 million pixels), a picture will only be taken
of a 3M-sized central part of a 12 M (equivalent to 12.1 million pixels) area, meaning
that the picture can be enlarged further.
●
The enlargement ratio displayed in the bar on screen is an estimate.
●
In certain Recording Modes, 'Tele macro' function (→49) is activated when maximum
zoom ratio is reached.
●
A greater degree of distortion may be generated by taking wider-angled pictures of
close objects, while using more telescopic zoom may result in more coloring appearing
around the outlines of objects.
●
The camera may make a rattling noise and vibrate when the zoom lever is operated -
this is not a fault.
●
Extended Optical Zoom cannot be used in the following cases:
[MACRO ZOOM], motion picture, [TRANSFORM], [HIGH SENS.], [HI-SPEED BURST],
[FLASH BURST], [PIN HOLE], and [PHOTO FRAME] Scene Modes
●
Digital Zoom cannot be used in the following modes:
([INTELLIGENT AUTO] Mode),
([TRANSFORM], [HIGH SENS.], [HI-SPEED BURST], [FLASH BURST], [PIN HOLE],
[FILM GRAIN] and [PHOTO FRAME])
●
[ZOOM RESUME] (→25) allows zoom ratio to be memorized even if power is turned off.

resolution technology, the zoom ratio can be increased up to about 1.3 times higher than
0.3 M
the original zoom ratio with almost no deterioration of picture quality.
