Using the Optical Zoom
With optical zoom, you can zoom out with Wide Angle (28 mm), which
captures more of the surrounding area in your picture, or zoom in with
Telephoto (84 mm), which brings the subject three times closer.
Using the Digital Zoom
Digital zoom provides two times magnification beyond the optical zoom
(above). You may notice a decrease in image quality when using digital zoom.
