2x magnification for video with camera in flip mode

I am trying to use the flip camera with 2x magnification to record an instructional video of myself. But it seems that the 2x only works when I capture what is facing away from me. I appreciate any comments and suggestions.

Hi ljubal1,


Thank you for contacting Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it seems like you want to use the 2x zoom while recording a video. While you can use 2x zoom on the rear facing camera with photos and videos, there is no option for zooming on the front facing camera.
