Using Zoom

NOTE

The more you zoom in on the subject of your picture,

the more that even small movements of the camera are

magnified (this is called “camera shake”). So, especially

at full telephoto zoom (3x), you really need to hold the

camera steady in order to take a picture that is not blurry.
If an icon of a shaking hand ( ) appears in the

Live View

screen, you should set the camera on a tripod or stable

surface; otherwise, the picture will likely be blurry.

Optical Zoom

NOTE

Optical zoom does not work while recording

video clips or while in

Super Macro

focus range.

Optical zoom works like the zoom on a traditional film camera,

with physical lens elements moving inside the camera to make

the subject of your picture appear closer.

Press

Zoom Out

and

Zoom In

on the

Zoom lever

to move the lens between wide

angle (1x) and telephoto (3x) positions.

Digital Zoom

NOTE

Digital zoom does not work while shooting panoramic

images, while recording video clips, or while in

Super

Macro

focus range.

Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom uses no moving lens parts.

The camera essentially crops the image to give an appearance

of the subject of the picture being an additional 1.1x to 7x

larger.
