Frame your subject
Your Nikon digital camera is equipped with
two types of built-in zoom: optical zoom, in
which the camera’s telescoping lens can be
used to magnify the subject up to 3 ×, and
digital zoom, in which digital processing is
used to further magnify the image up to 4 ×,
for a total of 12 ×. Use the zoom buttons
to frame your subject in the center of the
monitor:
• Press the W button to zoom out from your
subject, increasing the area visible in the
frame.
• Press the T button to zoom in on your
subject so that it fi lls a larger area of the
frame.
• When the camera is zoomed in to maxi-
mum magnifi cation, holding the T button
down for about two seconds will trigger
digital zoom. The zoom indicator will turn
yellow, and the green (AF) lamp next to
the viewfi nder will blink. Use the T and W
buttons to adjust zoom in the digital zoom
range. To cancel digital zoom, press W
until the zoom indicator turns white.
