Using the Zoom
Use the zoom control to activate optical zoom.
Rotate the zoom control toward g to zoom in,
increasing the size of the subject.
Rotate the zoom control toward f to zoom out,
increasing the area visible in the frame.
A zoom indicator is displayed at the top of the
monitor when the zoom control is rotated.
Digital Zoom
When the camera is zoomed in to the maximum optical zoom magnification,
rotating and holding the zoom control at g triggers digital zoom. Digital zoom can
magnify the subject up to about 4× beyond the magnification of the optical
zoom.
When digital zoom is used, the focus area is not displayed and the camera focuses
at the center of the frame.

C Digital Zoom and Interpolation
Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom uses a digital imaging process known as interpolation to magnify
images, resulting in slight deterioration of image quality.
Interpolation is applied when shooting still images at zoom positions beyond V.
When zoom is increased beyond the V position, interpolation is initiated and the zoom indicator
turns yellow to indicate that interpolation is being applied.
he position of V moves to the right as image size decreases, allowing you to confirm the zoom
positions at which still images can be captured without interpolation using the current image mode
setting.
When the image size is small.
