Digital zoom/ FZ20 examples.
Ian, Digital zoom is an internal image interpolation technique of the camera, a technological solution that changes the image sent to sensor and enlarges the actual pixels, the outcome is a "zoomed in" image but an image in a lower quality. This "technological" solution can always be applied on the image later on with PSP or any other imaging program. Am I missing something here in not understand why digital zoom is being used whatever the situation is since additional details are never being added to the image with digital zoom?
Regarding my images, all were taken with no converter with full optical zoom (equiv to 432mm) from a few meters away, not a distance shots, though, a good indication to the quality of the lens and the images the camera can produce.
