Canon SX1 Digital Zoom Test
I performed a very simple test taking photos of the moon to see the extent, quality, and difference between the optical and digital zoom, using the Canon SX1 IS.
Both photos were taken using 80 ISO, f/5.7, 1/200th sec with tripod
Clicking on either image will take to 100% size. To me, with this subject, I’m impressed with the 80X digital zoom.
