I'd say it it has optical zoom at least it can be a good start. The bigger the optical zoom is the better, it's much more accurate than the digital zoom.

first of all the no of mega pixels and the clarity of the image... and as Alex told, the optical zoom is very important

The problem with optical zoom is that it cost money :(
That hasn't changed from the time of old.
