Digital Tele-Converter

The focal length of the lens can be increased by approximately 1.6x or 2.0x. This can reduce camera shake because the shutter speed is faster than it would be if you zoomed (including using digital zoom) in to the same zoom factor.

zzPress the <n> button, choose [Digital Zoom] on the [4] tab, and then choose the desired option (=28).

XXThe view is enlarged and the zoom factor is displayed on the screen.

The digital tele-converter cannot be used with digital zoom

(=35) and AF-point zoom (=41).

The respective focal lengths when using [1.6x] and [2.0x] are 44.8 – 358.4 mm and 56.0 – 448.0 mm (35mm film equivalent).
