Are the cameras always so zoomed in?

[joshwithachance]

Particularly with the front facing camera, I find them to be pretty zoomed in by default, which is VERY inconvenient when trying to take photos with friends, etc. I have the zoom panned all the way out, but it's still so close to whatever I'm taking a photo or video of. Is there a way to further zoom out, mainly with the front cam?

Pinch the screen and if says 1.0 you are as far zoomed as you can go.

Edit...my bad I see that doesnt workwith front camera, I havent tryed this yet with friends, might try and see if there is a better camera app in the playstore.

I think the camera in the front is more for self portraits and video messaging apps, its a shame the zoo.m cant be adjusted
