zoom in while recording video

My iPhone SE seems to allow zooming in and out while recording video only while shooting from the back (non-screen side) of the phone. Is this just the way it is, or have I somehow disabled zooming for the front camera?

Video Recording Issue with 4K at 60 fps (High Efficiency) on iPHone 13 Pro Max I am having an issue recording video with 4K at 60 fps (High Efficiency). While actually videoing, I can only zoom between .5 - 1.5, 1 - 3, or 3.1 - 9. I cannot zoom between .5 - 9. If you are not videoing, you can zoom from .5 - 9. The issue is only present while actually videoing. This was not an issue on my previous iphones versions to my knowledge, but to be honest I never tried before on the iPhone 12 Pro Max I had. This issue is not present at the other Record Video settings: Settings/Camera/Record Video As a temporary fix, I changed my Record Video setting to 1080p at 60 fps. I hope this information helps others experiencing the same issue.

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities.

That's expected behavior for iPhone SE (2nd Generation).
