35mm 9mp quality

173mm (5X) 9mp quality

350mm (10x) 9mp quality

350mm (10x) + 2.05x Digital zoom 9mp quality

350mm (10x) + 5x Digital zoom 2.1mp quality (full optical & digital zoom)

Conclusion:
350mm (10x) + 2.05 Digital zoom is pretty usable.It is maximum digital zoom without losing mp quality going beyond 2.05 will decrease the quality of the picture to 2.1mp. But you can achieve 3.05 digital in full 12mp mode.. i don't use 4:3 format so that's why i set it to 9mp(16:9)
