Point-and-shoot digital cameras come with a fixed lens, that often has both an optical zoom and a digital zoom. The fujifilm FinePix S3200 has a 24x optical zoom and 6.2x digital zoom. DSLR cameras such as Canon cameras with an EF mount, like the EOS and Rebel series cameras, can have different lenses attached. These lenses can have focal lengths of 600mm and beyond.

What is a good camera brand or a specific camera that is cheap and has a good zoom like 8x?
Nikon, Canon, Sony etc., are all very good and economical too. The differentiator should not be the price, but how it feels in your hand. Can the camera take the types of pictures that you want to take. Also, very few cameras have 8x optical zoom. Digital zoom is not very good as the picture quality will be poos and you will not like the results of digital zooms. Make sure that the camera you buy has 8x optical zoom.
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.
