zBased on the number of recording pixels set, the Safety Zoom feature calculates the maximum zoom factor beyond which image quality will begin to deteriorate. The digital zoom pauses at this zoom factor for a moment, and appears on the LCD monitor.

If you press the zoom lever toward again, you can zoom in even closer. In this case, the displayed zoom factor changes from white to blue.
