I have used its 320x digital zoom during experimental night-sky videography & photography, but not anywhere as sharp as a regular telescope. As per BB listing "30x optical/320x digital zoom", Sony adds a "60x Clear Image Zoom" circuitry claim. I usually stay in optical zoom range/setting only as digital zoom (cams. in general) always tends to degrade the pic./video quality. I do notice a slightly better result past 30x, so entering Sony's special circuitry claim of getting a "less pixelated" & more smooth image result. I'm able to get craters & portions of the Moon surface, even in daytime (tripod also), while likely some level of that past 30x optical into zoom is utilized, perhaps 40x or so; however, I stand impressed w/its 30x optical due that's all physical optics/lens related.
