Shooting Range and Focusing
Digital Tele-Converter
The focal length of the lens can be increased by approximately 1.5x or 2.0x.
This can reduce camera shake because the shutter speed is faster than it
would be if you zoomed (including using digital zoom) in to the same zoom
factor.
• The digital tele-converter cannot be used with digital zoom
(= 6 3) and AF-point zoom (= 8 7).
•
The respective focal lengths when using [1.5x] and [2.0x] are 42.0 –
210.0 mm and 56.0 – 280.0 mm (35mm film equivalent).
• The shutter speed may be equivalent when you move the zoom lever all the
way toward <i> for maximum telephoto, and when you zoom in to enlarge
the subject to the same size following step 2 on = 6 3.
