Deterioration point
•An image deterioration icon (Ù) will appear on the monitor screen at the point where image deterioration starts.
•The deterioration point depends on the current image size setting (page 36). The smaller the image size setting, the higher the zoom factor you can use before reaching the image deterioration point.
•Though digital zoom generally causes a deterioration of image quality, some digital zoom without image deterioration is possible with image sizes of “7M” and smaller. The range in which you can use digital zoom
