Description
Zoom (default setting)
When shooting, use the side zoom control (

zoom.
Manual focus
When the focus mode is set to
E
(manual focus), use the side
zoom control to focus (

Use the side zoom control in the direction of
g
to focus on
distant subjects.
•
Use the side zoom control in the direction of

Snap-back zoom
This is convenient when shooting at the telephoto position,
when it is more difficult to keep subjects in focus. Use the side
zoom control in the direction of
f
to zoom a specific increment
from the current zoom position toward the
f
side. Use it in the
direction of
f
again to move the zoom position further toward
f
side. Use it in the direction of
g
to return to the original zoom
position, before the side zoom control was used.
•
When using the digital zoom, use the side zoom control in the
direction of

to move to the telephoto end of the optical
zoom.
•
If you perform any operation other than the side zoom
control, the zoom is not returned to the zoom position before
the operation.
• Snap-back zoom
is not available during movie recording.
