What’s better 10x Op. Zoom or 40X Optical zoom?

Hello I recently purchased a Sony Camcorder Model DCR-HC38 which has 40x Optical zoom and 2000x Digital zoom. I paid about $330 for it. however not a lot of accessories are compatible with it. So I was looking at Sony’s DCR-HC96 model. This has extra features, is compatible with many accessories and cost $800. But the zoom on this one is 40x optical and 120 digital. So I was wondering why that is? Is more zoom better? Please tell me everything you know about camcorders and zoom etc. Thank you.

generally optical zoom is better than digital zoom. the more the zoom, the more u can magnify the image ur recording, etc…

i think the answer to ur question is…if you want to be able to zoom more, the one u purchased does the job.

but if u wan ur camcorder to have more accessories, the Sony DCR-HC96 is ur choice.

hope this helps.
