Zooming

E
11 optical zoom
The camera's 11 zoom lens allows you to choose the best picture angle for each
scene:
• Turn the zoom control towards W to zoom out to wide-angle.
• Turn it towards T to zoom in to telephoto.
You can also control the speed of zooming:
• Move the control slightly to zoom slowly.
• Turn it further to zoom more quickly. (The further you turn 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.
44 digital zoom
Turn the digital zoom on from choosing D. ZOOM at the camera menu, to
multiply the camera's zoom range by four.
(see p. 28)
The zoom control continues to work as usual. You can freely zoom in and out
between 1 and 44 magnification — the camera automatically switches between
optical zooming (up to 11 ) and digital zooming (11 to 44 ).
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 11 .
