Taking Digital Zoom Pictures

Digital zoom pictures are magnified two times (2×). This format is like a digital version of telephoto. The automatic cropping effect makes file sizes smaller, allowing you to store more pictures in the digital zoom format.

Make sure the camera dial is set to View, and follow these steps to take a digital zoom picture:

1Press the Mode button three times.

The word D-ZOOM appears on your LCD briefly. An

orange frame appears around the previewed image, and

the digital zoom icon is displayed at the bottom of the screen.

2Press the shutter button halfway to lock the auto focus.

The status light turns orange, and a small green circle appears in the upper right corner of the screen. While you hold the button down, you can reframe your picture if you want.

3Press the button all the way down to capture the image.

The zoom format remains active until you press the Mode button again or turn off the camera.

NOTE

Since the digital zoom mode crops the image and magnifies it, it

is best to print the image in a smaller format.

Using the View Mode Menus

You can use the view mode on the LCD screen to use advanced settings and control the display of information. Make sure your lens cover is off, then follow these steps to access the menus:

1Slide down the camera dial lock and turn the camera dial to the View position.

The lens moves out and you see a preview of your picture on the LCD screen.
