Roger and Roger, Zooming in to get a picture of the date is better done with an optical zoom rather than a digital zoom. Digitally zooming in looks as though the pixels get larger, and when you zoom too far, it's like looking at a newspaper photograph with a magnifying glass - all you see is a lot of dots. Maybe with the newer megapixel cameras this isn't as bad as it was with the earlier cameras. Ray W
