RECORDING MODE
Digital zoom
Assisting the optical zoom is a four-step 2X digital zoom. The digital zoom is activated
in the custom section of the recording-mode menu (p. 28).
The digital zoom increases the magnification of the greatest telephoto setting of the
optical zoom in four steps: X1.25, X1.50, X1.75, and X2.00. Although the images
recorded with the digital zoom are interpolated to the set image size, the quality of the
images may not be equal to images taken without the digital zoom. The effect of the
digital zoom is visible on the LCD monitor only. The digital-zoom function is canceled if
the LCD monitor is turned off (p. 48).
At the maximum telephoto position, press
the zoom lever up to engage the digital
zoom.
• The zoom magnification will be displayed in
the top right corner of the monitor.
• To zoom out, press the zoom lever down.
Instant playback
After a still image is captured, it can be displayed
on the monitor for two seconds before being
saved. Instant playback shows the last frame in
the series when used with the continuous-advance
drive mode (p. 31). When the LCD monitor is
turned off (p. 48), it will automatically activate for
the instant playback period.
Instant playback can be activated in the custom
section of the recording-mode menu (p. 28). When
used with voice memo, the audio recording will
begin after the image is played back.
Activate the digital zoom in the custom
section of the recording mode menu.
• The digital zoom will remain active until
reset on the menu.
Innovation and creativity has always been a
driving force behind Minolta products. The
Electro-zoom X was purely an exercise in
camera design. It was unveiled at Photokina
in Germany in 1966.
The Electro-zoom X was an electronically
controlled aperture-priority mechanical SLR
with a built-in 30 - 120mm f/3.5 zoom lens
giving twenty 12 X 17mm images on a roll of
16mm film. The shutter-release button and
battery chamber are located in the grip. Only
a few prototypes were built making it one of
Minolta’s rarest cameras.
