CONTRAST
Contrast: normalContrast: low Contrast: high
This function increases or decreases the contrast of the scene in three levels: high (+), normal, and
low (–). This can be set in section 3 of the recording menu (p. 38). Contrast cannot be changed
when using digital subject programs. Any changes made are applied to the live image. If any level
except normal is selected, an indicator appears on the monitor as a warning.
DIGITAL ZOOM
The digital zoom for still images is activated in section 3 of the recording menu (p. 38). The digital
zoom increases the magnification of the greatest telephoto setting of the optical zoom by up to
4.0X. Although the images recorded with the digital zoom are interpolated to the set image size, the
quality of the images may not be equal to images taken without the digital zoom; the greater the
power of the digital zoom the lower the image quality.
At the maximum telephoto position, contin-
ue to press the right side (T) of the zoom
lever (1) to engage the digital zoom. The
zoom magnification is displayed in the top
right corner of the monitor.
To zoom out, press the the left side (W) of
the zoom lever.
After zooming, the zoom indicator is dis-
played on the LCD monitor to show the
approximate zoom position.
