You can increase the zoom ratio 4x higher than the original zoom ratio. Note that, with Digital Zoom, enlarging will decrease picture quality.

When using [Digital Zoom], it is recommended to fix the camera so that it does not move.

[Step Zoom] | When it is set to [ON] and a zoom operation is performed, zooming stops at each decided focal point position. This does not work during video recording.
