Software Zoom
Software zoom enables a zoom for artistic purposes (e.g. to crop a subject), but software zoom will reduce image quality as the image is interpolated.
Tap the
Settings or
Tools button to display settings.
The setting for Software Zoom can be found in the
Tools section of the settings.
Software Zoom can be set to a 3x magnification, 2x magnification or off (disabled).
When disabled, zoom is only available if if it can be achieved while maintaining image quality. e.g. for 1080p video zoom is possible by using a portion of the camera’s image sensor.
Zoom Speed
When capturing video, the speed of manual zoom changes can be adjusted to achieve slow or fast transitions.
Adjust the Zoom Speed control to set the zoom speed.
