Zooming In Closer on Subjects (Digital Zoom)
When distant subjects are too far away to enlarge using the optical zoom, use
digital zoom for up to about 20x enlargement.
Zoom Factor
• Moving the zoom lever will display the zoom bar (which indicates the
zoom position). The color of the zoom bar will change depending on
the zoom range.
- White range: optical zoom range where the image will not appear
grainy.
- Yellow range: digital zoom range where the image is not noticeably
grainy (ZoomPlus).
- Blue range: digital zoom range where the image will appear grainy.
Because the blue range will not be available at some resolution
settings (p. 72), the maximum zoom factor can be achieved by
following step 1.
• Focal length when optical and digital zoom are combined is as follows (35mm
film equivalent).
24 – 480 mm (24 – 120 mm with optical zoom alone)
To deactivate digital zoom, press the n button, choose [Digital Zoom] on
•
the 4 tab, and then choose [Off].
