[CLOSED] 2x Digital Zoom setting on 600D? No.

[KarelBata]

I've just discovered the digital zoom capability on the 600. For those of us working with primes (like in 3D) this is fantastic. Suddenly you have an extra set of lenses!

(For those not in the know, this is not the same as cheaper digital zooms that zoom in electronically on an image, thus losing resolution. Normally in video mode the 600 records every third pixel across the chip. This can cause moire. With digital zoom on and set to 3X , the camera selects every pixel from a smaller chip area, reducing moire and also magnifying the image by 3.)

However this is limited to the one 3X setting. Would it possible to have an additional setting that scans every second pixel? A halfway house that would yield another effective focal length on a prime? That would be so great - three lenses in one prime!

No.
