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

Zooming is performed by changing the lens focal distance, so

there is no deterioration of image quality.

 

 

Allows greater zoom capabilities by cutting out a portion of the

HD Zoom

original image and enlarging it, without deterioration of image

 

quality.

Single SR Zoom

Applies super resolution technology to suppress image

deterioration (page 61).

 

Shoots a burst of high-speed images, which are then combined

Multi SR Zoom

into a final image in a way that lessens deterioration of image

quality. Multi SR Zoom is enabled only when the “Multi SR

 

 

Zoom” recording mode is selected. (page 62)

Digital zoom

A digital process is used to enlarge the center of the image, so

there is deterioration of image quality.
