magnification is fixed to the value set at 
the start of recording.

• “EZ” is an abbreviation of 

“Extended optical Zoom”.

• 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 zoom will stop moving for an instant 

near [W] (1

k) when the extended optical 

zoom is used. This is not a malfunction.

approximation.

] and 

[HIGH SENS.] or [HI-SPEED BURST] in 
scene mode, the extended optical zoom 
does not work.

achieved with the 3.6

the 4

k digital zoom when [D.ZOOM] is set 

to [ON] in the [REC] mode menu. However, 
if a picture size that can use extended 
optical zoom is selected, a maximum of 
22.7

k zoom can be achieved with the 5.7k
