Can you do any zooming on this recorder?

No. It is a fixed lens. I wish it could as this seems to be a draw-back to this camera. You have to get really close to fill the screen.

There is a record function button on the unit so I'm sure you can. However, I've had no occasion to try it.

Yes, you can. However, when you try to zoom in on the subject the resolution is not good at all. I love this camera for the simple reason that let's you learn how to use a camera, its rugged, durable and takes excellent pictures. All you need is a very good glass and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Yes you can. Video does blur some as zooming but focus again once zooming has stopped. I was doing a video of a waterfall and noticed while watching it on TV that the sound was distorted while zooming. But was okay after zooming stopped. Overall it does okay.

Yes, you can zoom in when recording video. But you do have to turn off the microphone in setting or it won't work.

Yes. You can even take still photos while you are videotaping. There's a photo button on top of the camera by the zoom.

The only zoom you have is the resolution and screen width you pick before you film. No running zoom.

You can run the lens out whilst shooting video, so zooming isn't a problem. The only downside is the sound of the lens coming out is picked up by the microphone.

Acually, I have the same problom. You see it dosent have a Zook out feture. The only way you can zoom out Is if you download a software to do it for you. Or if the program it self, (skype, oovoo, ect.) Allows you to do it. Other wise no, you cant. Hope this helped!

Some basic zoom - maybe X4. The Zoom has great sound capture and adequate video. I use mine to capture lectures etc and its perfect for that use.

No the camera doesn´t have ZOOM, I download software camera zoom fx and with this software the camera has zoom.

there is a digital zoom button you can push to zoom in, i think it's like 4x power or so. the quality goes down really far when you zoom in to the point where it's not worth using, very pixelated.

Hi again. Just tried mine out while recording a video and zooming in and out just as you asked, and it's silent. Sorry -- it does seem that you've got a lemon.

Yes, the webcam control software which starts when the cam is on has the ability to zoom in.
