pixels) CCD area is cropped to the center
3M (3 million pixels) area, allowing a pic-
ture with a higher zoom effect.

when the camera is turned on.
• If you use the zoom function after focusing
on the subject, focus on the subject again.
• The lens barrel (P9) extends or retracts

rel while the zoom lever is rotated.
