Digital Zoom Image

If [Normal] (the default option) is selected for [Digital Zoom Image] , digital zoom will enlarge image data from the center of the frame to create a picture at the current image size, creating a slightly grainy image. To record pictures taken with digital zoom at actual size, select [Auto Resize]. The size at which the image will be recorded varies with the zoom ratio.

Auto resize takes effect if you keep the z button pressed when the zoom bar is full. The size will then change each time the z button is pressed; the current size is displayed above the zoom bar.

The auto resize zoom is enabled when l4 : 3 F or l4 : 3 N is selected for [Picture Quality/Size] (GP.56), and the digital zoom is enabled in other cases.
