• We recommend you use a tripod to prevent camera shake when taking
pictures at high zoom ratios.
• Pictures taken in the digital zoom range appear grainier than pictures taken
in the optical zoom range.
• For details on the available functions, refer to “Functions Available for Each
Shooting Mode” (p.172).
