DTZ (Down To Zoom)

DTZ is the acronym for ‘Down To Zoom’.

Work has been crazy lately with this pandemic. Alex, Sabrina, Beau, Moussa, Gabriel, Jerique, Haley and Amy are all DTZ (Down To Zoom) but I don’t think I can do one more Zoom conference.

Zoom-Ready

When your hair, clothing, jewelry, and make-up are pulled together enough that you can get onto a video call without embarrassing yourself and/or scaring everyone else. This is especially important/ challenging when working alone at home.

Thank goodness I had an hour warning before the meeting to get myself presentable and Zoom-ready. I put in my contacts, fixed hair and make-up, put on my cov-earrings - - but true confession: I was still in my pandemic-pants!

digital zoom

Type of "zoom" found on many digital cameras and camcorders that is completely pointless. All it does is crop your image, resulting in degradation of quality, and can easily be done with any image editing software. Optical zoom is the only zoom that matters since it does not degrade image quality. Camera manufacturers love to advertise their cameras' digital zoom capabilities in really big font, while the optical zoom capabilities are printed really small or not at all. Uneducated consumers will only look at the digital zoom and probably buy the camera based on that.

Person #1: Look, my new digital camera has an 800x digital zoom!
Person #2: You're a moron.
