Zooming

While capturing a still image or a video clip using the camera, you can zoom in to make the object in focus move closer, and you can zoom out to make the object move farther away. In all capture modes, use the Navigation Control on your device or tap the triangular Up arrow above the Zoom Ratio indicator to zoom in your subject. When the zooming limit is reached, you will hear a beep. To zoom out, press the Navigation Control down or tap the Down arrow.
