become slightly coarse at higher zoom factors.

TIP
The [BRT] button is used to adjust the brightness when changing the overall brightness of the
live image during observation.
Tapping the up button of the [BRT] button brightens the overall image and pressing the down
button darkens it.
While a live image is displayed, you can switch to the long exposure mode by setting the [BRT]
(brightness level) to Level 10. This function is effective to display a higher level brightness than
normal when viewing a very dark object, etc.
However, the image may be blurred under certain observation conditions.
