When it comes to Digital Camcorders – what is the simple difference beween the terms digital and optical zoom?
I read somewhere once, digital zoom is actualy of secondary importance to a camcorder enthusiast and that to get a sense of the power of a cam, you find out its ‘optical zoom’ , fine I suppose.
So whats the difference between digital zoom and optical zoom ?
ya its true that digital zoom is of no or secondary importance. the main difference comes when you want to take a picture which is a distance and you want to take a pic.now optical zoom actually can zoom to the object (as prescribed on the cam or video cam like 4x or 6x etc.. ) you will no lose the picture clarity. where as the digital zoom can be larger then the optical but actually coming to truth the digital zoom never takes the picture of the distance objects but instead it zooms the picture in the optical zoom.ie if the picture has a tree and u want the see it clearly a fruit on it you zoom in the picture viewer the clarity of the fruit drcreases the same thing happens in digital zoom. so opt for cam with larger optical zoom never worry about the digital one. go to the source below get the clear picture.
