That digital zoom looks pretty good, especially for handheld. Looks like a winner to me.
I still prefer my DSLRs and good lenses, but the phone on the camera is handy.
From what I see the B600 has optical zoom, it gets it's long focal length due to it's 1/2.3" sensor size.
APS-C has a 1.52 crop factor
Micro 4/3 has a 2 crop factor
1/2.3" has a 5.62 crop factor
Digital zoom just crops the photo in the camera, you get the same results as you would get by cropping the photo with a photo editing program.

I’m beginning to explore the cameras possibilities. This is a telephoto view of my house from Timms Hill. This is at the highest optical view with no digital magnification.

My house is 3,694 feet from the tower. Earlier I estimated it at 3,500 feet.

Nice

Looks like you found a real gem of a small camera. I like the wide angle on that over the shot you took with the phone. Perspective and proportions look better. The phone shot looks stretched.
I have been looking for a camera to take out for quick shots that is easier to carry than my Nikon D5000. But don’t want to spend big bucks. I will start looking for a similar gem.
Load on Sunday and Shoot all Week.......okay it's a Mare's Leg I will reload on Wednesday.

I have a D7500 and prefer the B600 the most. The B600 only costs about 15% of the D750 too.

I thought I would try the macro mode. My biggest problem was holding the camera steady for the 1/15th of a second exposure. I need a table tripod.
