KODAK DIGITAL SCIENCE™ DC220/DC260 Zoom Camera
Zooming

The DC220 comes equipped with a 2X zoom lens that allows you to zoom in on your subject from Wide Angle (29mm) to TelePhoto (58mm). The DC260 comes equipped with a 3X zoom lens that allows you to zoom in from Wide Angle (38mm) to TelePhoto (115mm).

To activate the zoom:

  1. Move the ZOOM button to adjust the lens.

    • Move the button to the right (toward Telephoto) to zoom in on your subject.
    • Move it to the left (toward Wide angle) to zoom away from your subject.

The camera's default lens position is Wide Angle. All other lens positions are considered TelePhoto settings.

Digital zooming

Digital zooming allows you to zoom in on a subject beyond the range provided by the optical zoom lens. Digital zooming crops the center of the digital picture and resizes the new cropped picture to the size of the selected resolution.

Note: You may see some pixel interpolation effects with digital zooming.

The camera's viewfinder cannot accurately depict a subject that is digitally zoomed. You must use the LCD to preview the subject.

To use digital zoom:

  1. Turn the camera on in CAPTURE mode.

    In this mode, you can access the full optical zoom range plus the additional digital zoom range.

  2. Press the DISPLAY button to turn on the LCD.
  3. Move and hold the ZOOM switch all the way to the right (toward T) to zoom to the camera's maximum range.

  4. View the subject through camera LCD.

    The LCD displays an icon indicating that digital zoom is in effect.

    Note: Digital zoom is disabled when you turn the LCD off.

  5. Press the SHUTTER button to take the picture.
