The Dangers of Digital Zoom

Camera advertisements always mention digital zoom along with the regular optical zoom, but it’s best not to use it. All it does is zoom in and crop to a part of the picture without increasing the quality. You can do this using a photo editor and then you can get the framing of the picture absolutely perfect. When buying a camera, ignore the total zoom number and just look at how much optical zoom the camera has.
