OTHER RECORDING FUNCTIONS

Using the Zoom Continuous Shutter Mode

The zoom continuous shutter mode displays a selection boundary that you can use to select an area in the monitor screen. Then when you press the shutter button, the camera records the monitor screen image and the area enclosed in the selection boundary, digitally zoomed to twice its normal size.

1.In a REC mode, press [ ].

2.Use [￿] and [￿] to select “ Z ”, and then press [SET].

This causes “ Z ” to appear, along with a selection boundary in the center of the monitor screen.

3.Use [￿], [￿], [￿], and [￿] to move the selection boundary to the area of the monitor screen you want, and then press [SET].

4.Press the shutter button once to record.

This records two images: the image on the monitor screen and the image within the selection boundary, digitally zoomed to twice its normal size.

IMPORTANT!

Note with the above procedure, you do not need to keep the shutter button depressed.

Note that zoom continuous shutter operation is not available when the image size setting is 3072 2048 (3:2) or 640 480.

The size of the digitally processed images is smaller than the camera’s current image size setting.

Example: When the camera’s current image size setting is 3072 2304 pixels, the size of the digitally processed images produced

by a zoom continuous shutter operation will be 1600 1200 pixels.

When Auto Focus is selected as the focus mode, the metering mode automatically switches to “Spot” (pages 75, 77) and locates the Auto Focus area in the center of the Zoom Continuous Shutter selection boundary.
