The images you download are 1400x2000px, which seems reasonable.

The zoom feature gives you access to image tiles. From a quick look, these are 258x258px images, named http://cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/content/images/MS-ADD-04004-002-00...

Or something like that anyway.

It also uses something called Microsoft DeepZoom (http://cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/content/images/MS-ADD-04004-001-00...), and is powered by a Json manifest (http://cudl.lib.cam.ac.uk/json/MS-ADD-04004.json?_dc=1323748...)

Enjoy.
