Yes, in both cases it is digital zoom, you are right in that. But as far as I have understood, in 1080p when using the Pocket 2 itself, the zoom is somehow lossless. (Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.) Not sure how they do it, is it that they somehow keep the sensor itself in 4K mode in normal mode and only let it go down up to 1080p when zooming in, and just render the final capture footage in 1080p. But anyhow, I haven't noticed visible loss of quality in that scenario. (I usually only film in 1080p, due to reasons I mentioned earlier on.) At 4K, if I use zoom, it only goes up to 2X and, if I have understood right, is not lossless.
Not sure if there is something equal available in post-processing zooming though. Any additional thoughts and points on the subject would be interesting to hear.
I might be wrong but digital zoom is never lossless. |
