Using Zoom

The zoom lens of this unit allows you to change the focal length from wide-angle, which allows you to record a majestic landscape, to telephoto zoom, which allows you to enlarge a small distant subject. You can also increase the zoom ratio further by changing the setting.

Use the zoom lever to adjust the range of the picture to be taken

(wide-angle)	(telephoto)

••The zoom speed can be set to one of 2 levels using the angle at which the zoom lever is moved.

The illustration is an example of when using Extended optical zoom, [i.ZOOM], and [Digital Zoom].
