Setting the Digital Zoom

Available mode:

Tape Camera

You can select three different zoom ranges: 1–10K(optical zoom), 10–40K(digital zoom) or 10–500K(digital zoom). The digital zoom allows you to record powerful close-up pictures with the same operation as normal zooming.

Notes:

The digital zoom is in addition to the optical zoom giving a combined maximum zoom range of 1–500K.

As the image is enlarged digitally, the picture quality decreases when higher digital zoom settings are used.

1 In Tape Camera mode, press the DISPLAY button until the mode screen appears.
