As for whether you can use the digital zoom with this mod, there were a lot of "No" answers. Yes. Mine does. I am not sure if this is a feature added in a recent update of the Moto Mods software, or if it is just on the Moto Z Force, or if I just received an updated product (I just got mine yesterday (2/26/2017) but mine will allow me to use the digital zoom after the 10x zoom is at max, it allows me to go to 40x with the digital. One caveat though, while the mod is connected to your phone, swipe the viewfinder right on your screen and there is a setting "Use Digital Zoom". If you check this option, it will allow you to use the digital zoom, but only after the optical zoom has maxed out at its 10x. There is even a section in the "Adjust Settings" portion of the owner's manual for using the digital zoom feature (page 5).
Nice to also be able to adjust the settings within the Hasselblad to take Black & White pictures and Raw image format.
The optic lens automatically activates when the camera app is opened and automatically deactivates when the camera app is closed, or you can use the power button on the Mod itself.
I have attached some pictures for comparison. I am not able to attached the full scale pictures taken by the Moto Z Force (because they are about 12MB in size each), but in looking at these scaled down versions, since all are scaled down the same way, I am trying to show the difference between the stock camera vs. the Mod with full optical zoom to 10x vs. the Mod with full optic zoom to 10x combined with full digital zoom to 40x. These pictures were taken indoors with zero sunlight, only light source is an incandescent bulb between the camera and the paper. I measured the distance to be 12 feet.
So far I have not found anything I don't like about this Mod. Should anything new come up I will return to update this review, but as for now, it fits my needs perfect.

The camera is well built. There's no sign of usage, so I am quite sure it just happens to be in wholesale packaging as apposed to retail packaging. Took some pictures and I love the depth of field images created by the True Zoom.
Why four stars, in spite of the poor reviews by others? I know the main complaint about this camera is not adding a lot to the built in camera on Moto Z--mine is Moto Z Play--but I have low expectation because I have good DSLR and mirrorless cameras that I use for taking excellent pictures if I want to. I bought this only for convenience and freshness of Moto Mods. (It makes me feel like James Bond! Smile!)
Okay, it doesn't take 4K video, but I don't need 4K video for my application. I'm happy with HD. All I want is optical 10x zoom and this True Zoom does the job well.
My only concern was the price point. I ordered it when it was back ordered and listed for 199, that's the most I wanted to pay, but I know Hasselblad makes good optical cameras. So I'm a happy camper. Plus, I got my Moto Z Play from Verizon for 200 bucks, after a generous trade in discount. (Z Play is an extremely well reviewed phone that rivals most expensive phones in performance. I recommend it!)
I also love the bright Xenon flash for low light shots. It covers the average living room and dining room without problem, much better than the built in flash on the phone.
Yes, it could be better. It could have a faster lens, 4k video, etc. But for the price, I'm happy with what it provides: 10x optical zoom, added shooting features, brighter flash, and Bond like coolness! I recommend it!
