Digital zoom is the most trashy feature ever created.  The catch is you have to go out of your way to carry a camera whereas the cell phone is likely already in your pocket. On 3/5/2020 12:00 AM, Nate Burke wrote: See, back about 1000 years ago, they made cameras that, believe it or not, that

I found this review of superzoom cameras available in 2020. One of them does have a 1 inch sensor but less zoom. It seems that Canon and Panasonic are still the leading brands in the category, and that the comparisons still hold – Canon has longer zoom, Panasonic has a constant aperture lens.
