Zoom Not working

If the zoom lever is not working then I would recommend buying a new pair without a zooming mechanism. Zoom binoculars are more trouble than they are worth. Sorry!

have you checked that the diffuser is pushed fully home in its slot until you hear a click - this diffuser is for close-up work only and dissables the zoom flash

Unfortunately digital zoom never works well. It's best to turn digital zoom off in the menu and never use it.
This is for any camera!

sorry to give you bad news , but most zoom binoculars are not worth cost to repair, they are made of either a small steel band or tiny metal gears to enable both sides to work simultaneously, once they are broken it is almost impossible to find matching parts. [email protected]

The digital zoom works fine on mine. It sounds like your have encountered a couple of defective models.

However, even once you get the digital zoom to work, it gets really grainy, so I don't use it.

You're gonna kick yourself, but here goes, you know that clear plastic wide beam shield on the front, make sure it's fully inserted or else the auto zoom won't work while it's in use, (or the flash thinks it's in use)

Awesome ! ! ! That works ! ! ! ... Turning off, removing battery for 30 secs., putting it back on, and reboot. Thanks ! ! !

first of all why do you want to use digital zoom? it distorts your pictures! but if you insist, check the settings because it is possible to turn digital zoom off

Hello, there is no way to bypass the zoom or to manually work the zoom. Please contact me at LIVE Expert Assistance. Best regards, Arpi

Digital zoom is in the menu and must be turned on to activate it. When you use the zoom it takes 2 opperations to function. First opperation is to zoom all the way in then the camera should stop. This is the limit of the optical zoom. Then you let off the zoom button, and hit it again and then the digital zoom will start. Digital zoom is just a gimic if you learn how it works its not doing anything different then you can do in photoshop. All digital zoom is doing is like cropping.
