Re: How to stop G5xii from zooming beyond optical zoom but still allow digital?

May not be exactly what you are looking for...

but in the user manual it does mention that

(1) there is a display indicator to tell you if you are zooming beyond optical zoom or not

(2) you can simply deactivate digital zoom

Alternatively, you can choose to use RAW+JPEG mode. By including RAW, the camera cannot go beyond optical zoom. You can switch back to JPEG mode if optical zoom is desired.
