Using optical zoom
Use optical zoom to get up to 10X closer to your subject. (You can use optical zoom
before taking a video, but you can’t zoom while recording.)
1Use the EVF or LCD to frame your subject.
2Press Telephoto (T) to zoom in. Press Wide Angle (W)
to zoom out.
The zoom indicator shows zoom status.
3Take the picture or video.
NOTE: To get a focused picture every time, remember:
■Always use the auto focus framing marks.
■If you are using no zoom (1X, wide angle), you
can be as close as 24 in. (60 cm) to your subject.
(For Close-up/Macro mode, see page 12).
■As you zoom in, you need to move further from
your subject.
Use digital zoom in any Still mode to get up to 5X magnification beyond optical zoom.
1Press the Telephoto (T) button past the optical zoom limit (10X).
2Take the picture or video.
NOTE: You cannot use digital zoom for video recording. You may notice decreased image quality when using
digital zoom. The blue slider on the zoom indicator pauses and turns red when the picture quality
reaches the limit for an acceptable 4 x 6-in. (10 x 15 cm) print.
