Optical Zoom And Digital Zoom Switch Point - Casio Exilim EX-Z29 User Manual

NOTE
• The higher the digital zoom factor, the coarser the recorded image. Note that the
camera also has a function that lets you record using digital zoom without image
deterioration (page 46).
• Use of a tripod is recommended to protect against image blur due to camera
movement when shooting with telephoto.
• Performing a zoom operation changes the lens aperture.
• Digital zoom only is available during movie recording. You can adjust the optical
zoom setting before you press the shutter button to start movie recording.

Optical Zoom and Digital Zoom Switch Point

If you hold down the z (Telephoto) side of the zoom button, the zoom operation will
stop when the optical zoom factor reaches its maximum. Momentarily releasing the
zoom button and then holding down its z (Telephoto) side will switch to digital
zoom, which you can use to set an even higher zoom factor.
• During zoom, a zoom bar on the monitor screen shows the current zoom setting.
