Is this a fixed lens? Can we zoom in &amp; out? Thanks.

This is a fixed focal length. Does not zoom. One of my favorites. Amazing sharpness and low light performance.

This is a video lens the zoom is on the lens and it is truly smooth. I use it as my main lens.

No, the whole point of this camera is that its fixed zoom is versatile enough to cover almost any situation, without the need to carry and change bulky and expensive lenses. For the price I'd say it does an admirable job of it!

Yes, as are all lenses with a fixed focal length. (It doesn't zoom.) I love mine and use it all the time because of the very short focal distance.

No, this is a point-and-shoot, fixed lense not an SLR. It just has the look of an SLR.

It has zoom, if you count that as manual focus. This kit, at least mine did, comes with two lenses that give good options for shoots. Hope this helps

No, not exactly. It is a fixed focus lens. For making portraits it's really fantastic!

Maybe due to focal length they are classifying it as fixed zoom but I would disregard. Focal length is equivalent to 45mm on FX.

Yes it can zoom. it's more of a push and pull type of zoom instead of moving the lens side to side.

Hi Chris,Is this lens new or used? Because as of today it's malfunctioning while zooming in-out

Hi. The lens is a 30mm prime, wich means 30mm is its only focal length, there's no zooming.

I ended up returning the item. I believe it is only for a fixed lens not a zoom. I hope this helps.

I don't remember it saying zoom in the description, but in any case, it is not a zoom lens. There may have been a typo. I would disregard any mention of zoom for this lens. It does not zoom to a different focal length; it stays at 30mm.

No, it doesn't control zoom lens. What they are indicating is that you can zoom in on the photo or live view.

It has a fixed lens 42x zoom approx. 1000mm. I really like mine it has a great amount of zoom capability and that was what I was looking for.

You could mount it on a base for pan and tilt, but no zoom. The lens is fixed.

It has no zoom. It has a fixed-power focusable lens... not 'zoom'. Just because you can twist the lens doesn't mean it's a 'zoom lens'. But then, you probably don't know what a zoom lens is. As timemachine said, it replaces the eyepiece with a fixed-power 'simple' camera. He obviously has no idea what an "objective lens" is.Done. Caveat Emptor
