[QUOTE="Whisp, post: 380213, member: 9598"] If your camera has digital zoom; do not use it. Digital zoom is cropping your image in the camera. Only always use optical zoom as that is real zoom and if you only stick with that you can always crop the image in an editing program to achieve the same result. To put it more simply, optical zoom is the lens doing all the hard yards whereas digital zoom is electronic trickery. Plus I defy anyone to hold the camera still enough at those ridiculous high zoom ratios, whether it be optical or digital unless you have a tripod that probably costs several times more than the camera and is fitted with a fluid head.
