Using zoom
NOTE Zoom does not work while recording video clips.
Optical zoom
NOTE Frequent or extended use of optical zoom consumes a lot of battery power and can drain your batteries quickly.
Optical zoom works like the zoom on a traditional film camera, with physical lens elements moving inside the camera to make the subject of your picture appear closer.
NOTE Press the Zoom Out 
and Zoom In 
controls on the Zoom lever to move the lens between wide angle and telephoto positions (1x to 3x).
Digital zoom
Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom uses no moving lens parts. The camera essentially crops the image, then uses interpolation to enlarge the image to give the appearance of the subject in the picture being from 1.25x to 4x closer.
1Press the Live View

2Press the Zoom In 
control to optically zoom in to the maximum level, then release the control.
