Extended optical zoom mechanism
When you set the picture size to [ ]
(3M EZ) (3 million pixels), the 6M (6 million
pixels) CCD area is cropped to the center
3M (3 million pixels) area, allowing a
picture with a higher zoom effect.
• Refer to P65 for aspect ratio settings, P65 for
picture size and P25 for simple mode [ ].
•“EZ” is an abbreviation of
[Extended optical Zoom].
•You can further enhance the zoom
magnification with the extended optical
zoom without worrying about further
picture distortion.
•If you set a picture size that activates the
extended optical zoom, the extended
optical zoom icon [ ] is displayed on the
screen when you use the zoom function.
•The zoom will stop moving for an instant
near [W] (1k) when the extended optical
zoom is used. This is not a malfunction.
•The indicated zoom magnification is an
approximation.
•In motion picture mode [ ] and
[HIGH SENS.] in scene mode, the
extended optical zoom does not work.
A maximum of 14.6k zoom can be
achieved with the 3.6k optical zoom and
the 4k digital zoom when [D.ZOOM] is set
to [ON] in the [REC] menu. However, if a
picture size that can use extended optical
zoom is selected, a maximum of 20k zoom
can be achieved with the 5k extended
optical zoom and the 4k digital zoom.
