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.
