I don't know any free Zoom plugins. Just this one: http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=100464.msg332116#msg332116

For your image (and probably some other issues) you need to sort out JavaScript conflicts, as you are loading no fewer than 4 different version of jQuery.

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.6.3.min.js"></script>
<script src="/templates/divayo/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.8.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

See http://forum.virtuemart.net/index.php?topic=119638.0

Like I said I don't know any free Zoom plugins - the only zoom plugin I know is in the link. And yes, it is a paid for plugin.

Try this link where both free and paid image zooming utility have been listed.

I did not want to use yet another plugin that would "modify" displays as there are sometimes issues with this approach if you have customised the default templates or when VM updates.  If you go from Joomla 2 to Joomla 3 some vendors ask for an additional "donation".

If you have any idea how to modfiy a template view then it should not be too great a challenge to create your own image zoom.

Many still use the old Free version of cloudzoom js for image zoom (the new version is supposedly better for tablets etc and is £25 per site), but that may not meet your needs.  I might be testing elevateZoom JS as this looks pretty up to date - but no need yet for me.

Phases:-

Get your zoom javascript from a safe source.
Edit your template to load the chosen zoom JS
Create an override for Virtuemart default_ images.php
Include the relevant CSS in your stylesheet override
Test!!
