There are 9 total zoom speeds: • 3x CRASH ZOOMS The fastest zooms possible to bring that 70’s look to any video! • 3x COOL ZOOMS Normal speed zooms to push-in/out of a location/scene. • 3x CREEP ZOOMS Slowest zooms ever seen – up to 60 seconds long! Dolly Zooms are now also possible. Simply mount iPhone on a dolly and trigger either servo or timed zoom mode and you’ll be the first in your neighborhood to shoot a proper dolly zoom on an iPhone! Timed Zoom, or what fans call, “Magic Zoom,” is a novel way to get a perfect zoom. Set up your starting zoom position; ending zoom position; and the time between positions.
