My camera has a 10x zoom ,and it’s not easy to keep the camera rigid. 700x optical zoom, not digital zoom, would be impossible, seems to me probably so even on a tripod.

My God, how could you keep the object in frame... :-) Wow, I didn't notice that! That would be a feat without a serious mount and traversing mechanism.
