Using the Power Zoom
The power zoom W control widens the picture, moving the subject farther away, while the power zoom T control brings the subject closer, narrowing the picture. If appears at the left of the viewfinder, the digital zoom function shown below has been engaged.
Using the Digital Zoom
The digital zoom increases the magnification of the power zoom by 2 times. You must place the subject you wish to magnify at the center of the viewfinder.
Note: When the digital zoom is used, the more the image is magnified, the rougher the picture becomes. Also even a slight shaking of the camera/recorder is conspicuous.
Press and hold the power zoom T control until you find the picture you want. You control the zoom with the power zoom T and W controls. When is not displayed in the viewfinder, normal zoom functions resume.
