Zooming - Canon Vistura User Manual

Zooming

16 optical zoom
The camera's 16 zoom lens allows you to choose the best picture angle for each
scene:
• Press the zoom control towards WIDE to zoom out to wide-angle.
• Press it towards TELE to zoom in to telephoto.
You can also control the speed of zooming:
• Press the control slightly to zoom slowly.
• Press it further to zoom more quickly. (The further you press the zoom control,
the faster the zoom speed.)
The T and W buttons on the wireless controller adjust the picture angle, but not
the zoom speed.
64 digital zoom
Turn the digital zoom on by choosing D. ZOOM from the camera menu, to more
than double the camera's zoom range.

(see p. 27)
The zoom control continues to work as usual. You can freely zoom in and out
between 1 and 64 magnification — the camera automatically switches between
optical zooming (up to 16 ) and digital zooming (16 to 64 ).
Notes:
• When you want to get as close as possible to your subject, keep the zoom at the
wide-angle position. You can focus on a subject as close as 3/8 in (1 cm).
• Image resolution is slightly lower when the magnification is greater than 16
optical zoom.
• When the zoom enters the digital area, the zoom indication will be longer and
the digital area will be light blue.
