It's meant to be : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDbzQWJP1RQ but I've linked to a N93 video Yeah I guess you’re right there James – for clips you know are going to be edited later, setting the zoom first is the best option, and as you said, then continue filming.

The Nseries video isn't as clean as I'd like and the YouTube conversion process seems to make things a lot worse. Auto-focus in video mode (much like the iPhone 3GS) would be an excellent, and much overdue addition. For me, the thing to remember with this new digital zoom method is that like most zooming you would probably hardly ever be filming whilst actually zooming. Normally you would pause, reframe the subject using the tighter angle afforded by the zoom, and *then* resume filming. I’d like to see some of the original zoomed footage.
