Digital Zoom

Use digital zoom to crop and expand a camera view to get a closer look

Digital zoom allows users to focus on specific areas of interest in live or recorded footage, providing more visibility without the need for physical camera adjustments.

Use digital zoom

Digital zoom is different from optical zoom. For the best experience, set the live video quality to HQ and historical footage quality to SQ with HQ motion. See Manage Camera Video Quality for more information.
