The Basics of Shooting and Playback
C Digital Zoom and Interpolation
Unlike optical zoom, digital zoom uses a digital imaging process known as interpolation to magnify
images, resulting in slight deterioration of picture quality according to the image mode (A 60) and
digital zoom magnification.
Interpolation is applied at zoom positions beyond V when taking still images.
When zoom is increased beyond the V position, interpolation is initiated and the zoom indicator
turns yellow to indicate that interpolation is being applied.
T
he position of V moves to the right as image size decreases, allowing you to confirm the zoom
position at which shooting without interpolation is possible at the current image mode setting.
