Depends on the quality of the picture and how much you enlarge it. When you enlarge it too much, you will see the pixels, which is never a good thing.

What is definition of scaling in computer graphics?

In computer graphics, image scaling is the process of resizing a digital image. Scaling is a non-trivial process that involves a trade-off between efficiency, smoothness and sharpness. With bitmap graphics, as the size of an image is reduced or enlarged, the pixels which comprise the image become increasingly visible, making the image appear "soft" if pixels are averaged, or jagged if not. With vector graphics the trade-off may be in processing power for re-rendering the image, which may be noticeable as slow re-rendering with still graphics, or slower frame rate and frame skipping in computer animation.

Digital graphics are images and or text created on or scanned into a computer. A digital camera uses 1's and 0's to create the image, not film, so the photograph is also considered digital, whereas a photograph from film is just a photographic print.

How much difference is there between a x50 zoom and x60 zoom on a digital camera?

You will have an image about 20% larger at x60, but there is catch. Usually magnification of that amount is a combination of the optical zoom and digital zoom. The total obtained by multiplying. With digital zoom, the quality will likely decrease faster as the magnification increases. So normally, the optical zoom will go to maximum before the digital zoom begins to operate. So if the x50 has 10x optical and then 5x digital, it could produce a better image than 6x optical with 10x digital zoom (unless the optics are not that great). It's good to know which is which. See if you can find reviews on both.

What is the difference in image clarity in digital image processing and optical image processing?

Digital image is depending on the camera resolotion, where optical image depends on the quality of the film. Normally an optical image will be better then a digital image, unless you are using high end digital camera. I hope this helps, Icko www.rtgallery.com
