" ... The 40X optical zoom in this small package is tops in its class. ... "

" ... For a pocket camera, the zoom is incredible. ... there may be a bit of softening of the image at maximum zoom, but not enough to be easily noticeable (or it may be that the camera was shooting so slowly in somewhat cloudy conditions and full zoom that less than "softening" was inevitable). ... "
" ... Image stabilization is very good. ... I got acceptable results at >20x zoom with a light-weight monopod (a Slik). ... Close focus also appears much better.--9/4/2017 ... "
