You can change the size of the subject in the scene. Use zooming to focus manually or to
decide the shooting angle. Also use “zoom-in (Telephoto)” for dramatic close-ups. Use
“zoom-out (Wide-angle)” for panoramic long shots.
Most common mistake, however, is using zoom-in or zoom-out too often during recording.
For natural recording, you may want to set the zoom first and then start recording.
