Extended optical zoom mechanism
When you set the picture size to [ ]
(3M EZ) (3 million pixels), the 5M (5 million
pixels) 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, P73
for picture size and P28 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 indicated zoom magnification is an
approximation.
•The on-screen zoom indication may not
change consecutively if you rotate the
zoom lever near the Tele position when
the extended optical zoom is used. This is
not a malfunction.
•In motion picture mode [ ] and
[HIGH SENS.] in scene mode, the
extended optical zoom does not work.
