a Zoom lens is a lens on a camera (still and video both) to get a closer shot of the subject. There are lenses that have both optical zoom and digital zoom capabilities (optical zoom being the better of the two)

Get the Zoom Toobinmug. A dolly zoom is aspecial effect on film where the camera lens zooms in, while the camera itself is pulled backward on a dolly. It creates a highly unsettling perspective shift that can be used to dramatic effect, for example in Hitchcock's Vertigo.
It's sweeps, and I've seen twenty dolly zooms this week alone. Stupid TV shows trying to be more dramatic...

Get the zoomsmug. What your school does for quarantine school. It makes you addicted to your phone and computer. It also drives your teachers crazy because no one unmutes. Also, you don't learn half the stuff you're supposed to. Also, it makes everyone develop intense social anxiety. So basically, your average school thing.
Kid 1: hey, I think I'm in your spanish class
Kid 2: yeah, same period too? Cool, see you in zoom class!
Kid 1: omfg I don't want to unmute what if people think my voice sounds weird??
Kid 2: aaaaaaaaaa mee toooooo! Zoom classes suckkkkkkkk
Both: just text the entire rest of the class and don't say anything (or learn anything

Get the Zoom Challengemug. A person (usually a teen) that comes to zoom classes and starts ruining the lesson. Showing pornography, speaking loudly, saying swear words.
some people like him cuz he usually ends the lesson. But some people don't cuz they want to learn.

Classmate 2. Idk they are annoying and the teacher says that police are gonna get involved if WE don't stop giving codes even though we don't even know these people.
