Question: I am considering buying a digital camera. One I am considering has 4.0 digital zoom and ,also, 6.0 optical zoom. How do the two features interact? 6.0x4.0= 24.0 zoom????
Answer: Optical zoom is a true zoom, bring you closer to your subject. The quality stays constant as you zoom in and out. Digital zoom (shudder) enlarges the image. After a while, every pixel becomes large and obvious in your photos. I'd recommend avoiding a purely digital zoom camera and looking at optical zoom first, second, and third. If your camera has both, try to stay in the optical zoom range. The reality is, that you can digitally zoom any image in your computer after downloading. I hope you find this helpful.
