Using Z

The Z allows you to zoom in on a subject with less degradation of
photo quality than the Digital zoom. However, the photo resolution may
change compared to when you zoom in by rotating the zoom ring.
1 Rotate the mode dial to P, A, S, M, or i.
2 Press [i-Function] on the lens to select Z.

You can also press [i-Function], and then press [C/F] or drag the

screen to select Z.

3 Adjust the focus ring to select a zoom ratio.
•

You can also scroll the jog dial or drag the screen to select an

option.

Photo resolution varies according to the zoom ratio if you use the

Z.
