Shooting with Zoom
Your camera provides you with 3X optical zoom (which changes
the lens focal distance), which can be used in combination with
digital zoom (which digitally process the center portion of the
image to enlarge it) for total zoom capabilities of 12 - 45.2X.
IMPORTANT!
• Generally speaking, the higher the digital zoom factor, the
coarser the image that is recorded. However, digital zoom
can be used up to a certain point without causing
deterioration of the image.
• Digital zoom is not supported while "Timestamp" (page
135) is turned on.
