With the digital zoom, the image is digitally processed more than the
intelli or optical zoom modes. As a result, the image resolution may
deteriorate. The image quality may deteriorate depending on how
much you zoom in on the subject.
The zoom range will change depending on the aspect ratio of the
video.
