KODAK DC290 Zoom Digital Camera
User's Guide
Using Zoom
There are two types of zooming. Optical zooming uses the lens to produce quality pictures. Digital zooming continues the zooming process but reduces the quality of the picture. The camera is equipped with an optical zoom lens that lets you zoom in from Wide Angle (38 mm) to TelePhoto (115 mm).
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.
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 digital picture and resizes the new cropped picture to the size of the selected resolution. The viewfinder cannot accurately depict a subject that is digitally zoomed. You must use the color LCD to preview the subject.
- Press Display to turn on the color LCD.
- Move and hold the Zoom switch all the way to the right (toward T) to zoom to the maximum optical range.
- Release the Zoom switch, then move it to the right again and hold it.
- View the subject through the color LCD.
The color LCD displays an icon indicating that digital zoom is in effect.
- Press the Shutter button to take the picture.
Digital zoom is disabled when you press Display to turn off the color LCD.
