Zooming is possible to a maximum of 400X, or it
can be switched to 10X magnification using the
optical zoom (

●
Zoom magnification of over 10X is done through
Digital image processing, and is therefore called
Digital Zoom.
●
During Digital zoom, the quality of image may
suffer.
●
Digital zoom cannot be used

hen digital image
processing, such as Picture Wipe/Dissolve
(

Macro shooting (as close as approx. 5 cm (2
"
) to the
