Zooming in More Closely on Subjects (Digital Zoom)
ii
Digital Tele-Converter
The focal length of the lens can be increased by an equivalent of 1.5x or
2.0x. This enables a faster shutter speed and less chance of camera shake
than the zoom (including digital zoom) used by itself at the same zoom
factor.
The images may appear coarse, however, depending on the combination of
recording pixel (p. 69) and digital tele-converter settings used.
