    Please stop spreading disinfo. TQ
    In Tomsguide article, 'Optical vs. Digital Zoom: Why Digital Is No Longer a Dirty Word' states:
    "This is digital zoom: The camera's processor crops into the center of the photo."

    Adorama article, 'Optical Zoom vs Digital Zoom: What’s the Difference?' states:
    "digital zoom is simply cropping out the edges of your frame to create a larger image to fill the space"

        For a competitive price it can be good device but as far as we know sony they add 4-5 times the manufacturing costs just because its sony and this going to be doa regardless its a Sony.

          Without 10bit video and RAW image capture it's useless. No, thanks.

            Anonymous, 14 Oct 2022Those 2 things are the same thing.No, they are not. Digital zoom is continuous, therefore resembles true zoom. Crop is like switching two modules, not zooming.

              GSMArena needs to make another database for cameras and lenses, just like telephones! DPreview is not that good!

                  blogger will use gopro or dji or insta360 instead. Handy & can do more things

                    The fact that it lacks even the most basic set of photographic features as a compact camera (RAW capture, an optical zoom, a viewfinder) suggests that this camera really was made solely for vloggers. The absence of OIS and PDAF is quite baffling though, especially the latter - DPReview's video sample shows quite a bit of focus wobbling even when the person is standing still and only slightly shaking his head.

                    In my country this costs roughly the same as the much more competent ZV-1, so I wouldn't try to recommend it to anyone.

                                    Photogs would have considered it for the 20mm eq focal length, but they removed raw. Well done sony.
