Zoom Lens

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)

dolly zoom

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...

Zoom Head

A derogatory word towards generation Z; referring to a person who is of generation Z as inept, narcissistic, egotistical, ignorant, low self esteem, obnoxious, self absorbed, self victimized, and suffers from mental illnesses such as boarder-line personality disorder.
You hear that zoom head yap his/her trap?

The only life experience that zoom head has, is his/her phone.

I don’t trust zoom heads in the kitchen, as they don’t follow sanitary protocol, if any, like washing their hands thoroughly.

How many times do you need to repeat yourself to that zoom head, fire him/her.

That zoom head keeps showing up late, always on his/her phone, and moves slowly.

That zoom head struggles to identify with their own sexuality, let alone identity.

Be careful, if you lay it to that zoom head hard enough, he/she might end up committing suicide.

These zoom heads run out of so many ideas, they look back towards the 80s, and 90s.
