Point from which image deteriorates

The location of this point depends on the image size, the “Zoom (SR)” setting, and whether Multi SR Zoom is enabled.

.Zoom Factor

The digital zoom factor depends on the image size (page 102), the super resolution zoom setting, and on whether or not “Multi SR Zoom” is selected (page 62).

Multi SR Zoom is enabled only when the “Multi SR Zoom” recording mode is selected.
