what does dual image stabilized zoom for a digital camera mean?

does it mean optical or Digital or..... thanks..

it just means your images will be less blurry, specifically when you use your zoom (try using a cheaper camera with the zoom, blurriness is such an issue)
dual is just a fancy way of saying "extra" image stabilization

The above answer tells you what image stabilization is and does.

Dual means both a mechanical or optical AND CCD based image stabilization.

Mechanical or optical stabilization means the sensor actually moves in the opposite direction of the camera motion, optical means the lens is moved to compensate for the motion.

CCD image stabilization means the sensor actually captures a little less than 100% of the image that falls on it and shifts the mapping in response to camera shake so that a reference point on the sensed image is "moved around" so that camera shake is intelligently mapped out by the processor as the exposure is being made. Not as good as mechanical stabilization, but much better than none.

What camera model has this. It would help if we had the brand and model number so we could do the research necessary to answer your question.

A guess, based upon some of the marketing ploys out there to get people to buy their cameras?

One of the image stabilization schemes may be optical, that is within the lens which is the best of all of them or based upon some kind of sensor stabilization okay, but a compromise and something called "digital image stabilization" All it is, is the camera increases the ISO setting of the camera so your photos do not become blurred due to camera movement, but because the ISO is set so high, you get increased noise.

It means that even if you're both gyrating on the dance floor, you can still get a clear shot of your partner in front of you.

NO, but it would be closer to that effect compared to non stabilized cameras.
