Digital zooming
Digital zooming allows you to zoom in on a subject beyond the range provided
by the optical zoom lens. Digital zooming crops the digital picture and resizes the
new cropped picture to the size of the selected resolution.
The viewfinder cannot accurately depict a subject that is digitally zoomed. You
must use the color LCD to preview the subject.
To use digital zoom:
1
Turn on the camera and set the Mode dial
to Capture.
In this mode, you can access the full
optical zoom range plus the additional
digital zoom range.
2
Press Display to turn on the color LCD.
3
Move and hold the Zoom switch all the
way to the right (toward T) to zoom to
the maximum optical range.
4
Release the Zoom switch and then press
and hold it again.
5
View the subject through color LCD.
The color LCD displays an icon
indicating that digital zoom is in effect.
☞
Digital zoom is disabled when you
turn off the color LCD.
6
Press the Shutter button to take the
picture.
