•The file size is fixed at 640 ⋅ 480 pixels. Because the central part of the image is enlarged, the image quality is lower. However, the file size (number of pixels) displayed on the LCD panel does not change.
•The telephoto function is automatically switched off when you switch the camera off, press the [DISP] button to switch the LCD monitor off, or if the Auto Power Off function is triggered.
