Your camera offers optical and digital zoom features. Use optical zoom to get
up to two times closer (2X) to your subject. Then, to get even closer, use digital
zoom for an additional 3X.
In optical zoom, the camera lens extends or retracts as you push the zoom
buttons. When you turn on the camera, the lens extends toward the W position.
Digital zoom is accomplished with camera image processing; the lens does not
move. Preview is required for digital zoom.
