Zoom

Use the button to frame the subject in the monitor. Press to zoom out,

increasing the area visible in the frame. Press to zoom in up to 3× so that the sub-

ject fills a larger area of the frame. Pressing for about two seconds at 3× zoom will trigger digital zoom, allowing the subject to be magnified up to 4× more, for a total of magnification of 12×. Note that unlike optical zoom, digital zoom does not increase the amount of detail visible in the picture. Instead, details visible at 3× zoom are simply enlarged, producing a slightly “grainy” image.
