Using The Self-Timer; Shooting At Preset Focal Lengths (Step Zoom) - Canon PowerShot S200 User Manual

Shooting at Preset Focal Lengths (Step Zoom)

You can shoot at preset focal lengths of 24, 28, 35, 50, 85, 100 or 120 mm
(35mm film equivalent). This is convenient when you want to shoot at the
angle of view of those focal lengths.

To change the focal length from 24 to 28
mm, turn the <y> ring counterclockwise
until it clicks. Keep turning the <y> ring to
increase the focal length, which changes
to 35, 50, 85, 100, and 120 mm at each
click.
•
Step zoom is not available when shooting movies, so turning the
<y> ring has no effect.

When you are using digital zoom
by turning the <y> ring counterclockwise. However, you can set the focal
length to 120 mm by turning it clockwise.
