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 raider

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 1. I hope a zoom raider comes this lesson cuz I didn't do the homework
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.
