PURPOSE:
To produce the zoom in/out effect, or an instantaneous

offered by optical zoom. This system is called Digital
Zoom.

n
The quicker you push the Power Zoom Lever, the
quicker the zoom action.
NOTES:
●
Focusing may become unstable during Zooming. In
this case, set the zoom while in Record–Standby,
lock the focus by using the manual focus
(
Z
pg. 41), then zoom in or out in Record mode.
●
The zoom level indicator (
5
) moves during zoom.
Once the zoom level indicator reaches the top of
the zoom indicator bar, all magnification from that
point is through digital processing.
●
When using Digital Zoom, the quality of image may
suffer. To deactivate Digital Zoom, set “D.ZOOM”
to “OFF” in the Menu Screen (
