Frame your subject
Your Nikon digital camera is equipped with two
types of built-in zoom: optical zoom, in which the
camera's telescoping lens can be used to magnify the
subject up to 3 ×, and digital zoom, in which digital
processing is used to further magnify the image up
to 4 ×, for a total of 12 ×. Use the zoom buttons to
frame your subject in the center of the monitor:
• Press the l (W) button to zoom out from
your subject, increasing the area visible in the
frame.

• Press the O (T) button to zoom in on your sub-
ject so that it fills a larger area of the frame.
• When the camera is zoomed in to maximum
magnification, holding the O (T) button down
for about one second will trigger digital zoom.
The zoom indicator will turn yellow, and the
green (AF) lamp next to the viewfinder will
blink. Use the O (T) and l (W) buttons to ad-
just zoom in the digital zoom range. To cancel
digital zoom, press l (W) until the zoom in-
