Adjust the Camera Zoom Level

While shooting, adjust the zoom level of the camera to zoom in or out on a scene in front of you.

  1. Open Camera, and touch your preferred shooting mode.

  2. Adjust the zoom level in the viewfinder in any of the following ways:

    • Pinch in or out on the viewfinder to adjust the zoom level.

    • Touch the zoom level shortcuts above the zoom ring to switch between zoom levels.

    • Touch and hold down near the zoom ring to expand the zoom ring. Swipe left and right (in Portrait mode) or up and down (in Landscape mode) until your desired zoom level on the zoom ring matches the short red vertical bar in the center. Once you release your finger, the zoom ring and zoom level shortcuts will both display in this area.

      For example, if you wish to take photos from a distance and adjust the zoom level from 1x to 5x, touch and hold down on the zoom ring, and swipe left (in Portrait mode) or down (in Landscape mode) until the 5x zoom level on the zoom ring matches the short red vertical bar in the center. You could also touch the 5x zoom level shortcut to instantly switch to 5x zoom.
