Allows you to use timeDigital Zoom. By digitally processing and
magnifying images, zooming is possible from 16 times (the optical
zoom limit), to a maximum of 320 times digital magnification.
Digital Zoom is not available. Only optical zoom (maximum
16x magnification)
can function. When set to "OFF" during
Digital Zoom, zoom magnification
changes to 16x.
Usually the distance to a subject where the lens is in focus
depends on the zoom magnification.
Unless there is a distance of
more than 1m (3.3 ft.) to the subject, the lens is out of focus at the
maximum telephoto setting. When set to "ON", you can shoot a
subject as large as possible at a distance of approx. 60 cm (2 ft.).
Depending on the zoom position, the lens may go out of focus.
