Move and zoom a tkinter canvas with mouse

This is a simplified zoom example. You should use more advanced techniques to not cram the memory with a huge resized image for the large zooms.

Do not forget to place a path to your image at the end of the script.

P.S. For the advanced zoom example look here.
