Zoom


Zoom is a term used to describe magnification.  A zoom lens will allow the photographer to change the magnification and viewing angle to frame a photo.  Any increase focal length is considered zooming in, while any focal length shorter is considered zooming out.

Zoom can be accomplished via digital zoom (software based) or optical zoom (lens / glass based) or manually – by walking.
