The quality of the zoom feature of the camera
As the image is zoomed by digital processing in [Clear Image Zoom] and [Digital Zoom],
the image quality deteriorates compared to that before zooming was used. If you use a zoom
lens, we recommend that you fully zoom in on an image using the zooming ring first, and
then use the zoom feature of the camera if you need further zooming.
