(35 mm film camera equivalent: 28 mm to

• The optical zoom is set to Wide (1

• Depending on the zoom magnification, the

picture may have some distortion.
Distortion will be more visible when using

a wider area of the zoom lens as you
move closer to the subject.

• Depending on the zoom magnification, the

picture may have some colored fringes
around the subject. This is called
chromatic aberration and may be more
visible when recording distant subjects.

• If you use the zoom function after focusing

on the subject, focus on the subject again.

• The indicated zoom magnification is an

approximation.

• The lens barrel (P10) extends or retracts

according to the zoom position. Take care
not to interrupt the motion of the lens
barrel while the zoom lever is rotated.

• In motion picture mode [

], the zoom

magnification is fixed to the value set at
the start of recording.
