Right that is what is does but there is no stop at the end of the white zone - which is the main problem. Oddly enough there is a stop at the end of the yellow range, which makes less sense than having a stop at the end of the white range.

It is the same wiith the G1X III. It makes sense as quality of image drops significantly to "grainy" after the yellow range and the stop reminds people that : "Do you *really* want to go to the grainy zoom? Is the "good-quality-yellow-zone" digital zoom not enough?".

That's how I see it. lol
