∫Extended optical zoom mechanism

When you set the picture size to [ ]

(3M EZ) (3 million pixels), the 7M (7 million pixels) (DMC-FX07)/ 6M (6 million pixels) (DMC-FX3) CCD area is cropped to the center 3M (3 million pixels) area, allowing a picture with a higher zoom effect.

•Refer to P73 for aspect ratio settings, P74 for picture size and P27 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.
