I've been reading about the horrors of Digital Zoom. Most articles say the best thing you can do is turn it off. I'm still in love with my new camera a Fuji S700, which has both, a 48 x digital and 10 x optical. I did as suggested and left it turned off. It wasn't until I started playing around with the other camera features, that I decided to turn it on. Wow, what a pleasant surprise. I took a series of photos with and without. I thought the pictures were okay. I tried some at the lake yesterday and found them to just as good. The only think I did notice was extreme camera shake, once you snapped the photo the picture was fine. The camera picture however in the view finder was all over the place. I recommend using a tripod or propping your camera arm against a stationery object, to get the picture you want. The 48 x zoom is a blessings. I recommend toggling it on and off for those really long distance shots. The 48x zoom gave me shots that I could have never captured with the 10x zoom from where I was positioned. Here are some photos I took with the digital zoom, judge for yourself.
These are some photos I took while fishing with NP Monday night.Optical Zoom Distance in feet, between 1500-2000 feet
Same Shot Digital 48x zoom, Distance in feet, between 1500-2000 feet.
This last shot was taken with the digital zoom, but only 200-300 ft away and I held the camera a little better. It's hard to hold still at a long distance, likc the pics above. I love my
my Fuji Finepix S700.
