Because it's digital zoom, which means it simply enlarges the photo digitally and not optically.

Do you mean the image quality is not as good as you had expected?

the more you zoom the less quality you get. this only happens with digital zoom.

Yeah, it's because you're actually stretching the photo...

Yes, so digital zoom is total useless.

digital zoom works by enlarging the pixels, making the images more disorted.
