As Derk-Jan mentioned, we need to be careful when overloading shortcuts
such as scroll.
The idea is to use regular scroll for opening the information panel when
the image is not zoomed, and to move (pan) the image when zoom is applied
which I think will meet user expectations (especially in touch-enabled
devices).
Having said that, a shortcut for zooming makes a lot of sense (especially
it it takes into account the cursor position to allow indicating the area
to be zoomed).
Using shift+scroll for zoom makes sense in this context. In addition to
that, we can have keyboard shortcuts ("+" and "-").
We can even consider using regular scroll to zoom when it happens over the
zoom control or the thumbnail overview (since the zooming intent is more
obvious there).

I can imagine that you might what to use horizontal
scroll for slideshows
and vertical scroll to reach the info footer though. How about shift
scrolling for zooming ?

Looks like a great start!
The thing I tried doing immediately, which I consider an essential
feature for any photo zooming interface I would want to use, is
zooming by scrolling the mouse wheel. As a photo person, I'm used to
doing this all the time as part of my workflow for editing and viewing
photos on my computer.
