Shooting with Zoom
Your camera is equipped with various types of zoom: optical zoom, HD Zoom, Single SR Zoom, Multi SR Zoom, and digital zoom. The maximum zoom factor depends on the image size setting and the digital zoom on/off settings.
Optical zoom | Changes the lens focal distance. | |
HD Zoom | Allows greater zoom capabilities by cutting out a portion of the | |
original image and enlarging it. | ||
| ||
Single SR Zoom | Applies super resolution technology to suppress image | |
deterioration (page 44). | ||
| Shoots a burst of High Speed CS images, which are then | |
Multi SR Zoom | combined into a final image to suppress image quality | |
deterioration across a range that is greater than Single SR | ||
| Zoom. (Multi SR Zoom is enabled by selecting the “Multi SR | |
| Zoom” HS BEST SHOT scene.) (page 72) | |
Digital zoom | Digitally processes the center of the image to enlarge it. | |
