The Camera : Advanced Techniques
Using the Digital Zoom
✤ A 3x optical zoom and 12x digital zoom are available. The Zoom indicator shows the current zooming status. A divider
indicates the border between optical and digital zooming. The digital zoom digitally processes data from the CCD (Charge
Coupled Device, Image Sensor) to enlarge the center portion of the image to fill the frame and may produce a less detailed
and slightly grainy picture.
Push the Zoom Lever toward the TELE side, to zoom in until the zooming indicator crosses the line to
the TELE side. After reaching the maximum optical zoom level, pushing the Zoom Lever downward even
further automatically turns on the Digital Zoom.
Push the Zoom Lever toward the WIDE side, to zoom out until the zooming indicator crosses the line to
the WIDE side. After reaching the minimum digital zoom level, pushing the Zoom Lever even further
automatically turns off the Digital Zoom and returns to the Optical Zoom.
✤ Digital Zooming may produce grainy (noisy) pictures.
✤ Saving pictures which use the Digital Zoom may take more time.
✤ The Digital Zoom is not available for Motion Clips or NIGHT scene mode.
✤ Do not obstruct the lens movement while zooming.
