The quality of the [Zoom] feature of the camera
As the image is zoomed by digital processing in [Clear Image Zoom] and [Digital Zoom], 
the image quality deteriorates compared to that before zooming was used. If you use a zoom 
lens, we recommend that you fully zoom in on an image using the zooming ring first, and 
then use the [Zoom] feature of the camera if you need further zooming.
