Description
When digital zoom is used image quality will be somewhat lower
Solution
Digital zoom works by reducing the area of the image sensor used to create the image. By doing this the camera achieves a greater telephoto effect. Once the extreme end of a camera/camcorders digital zoom range is reached a significantly smaller number of pixels are being used to create the image thus reducing the image quality somewhat.
