My problem is when I zoom in on an object it does not allow me to size the area of the zoom effect in a freeform manner so I can obtain the specific area I want to zoom in on. How do I request this as a future feature?

Looks like Im not the only one with this issue. How do I fix this??

I have problems with panning and zooming, as when I use the camera effect on one scene, the other scenes start changing. even though I don't want the panning or zooming on the second scene

Hi guys, make sure to check how the image/video is framed BEFORE and AFTER the camera bar.

The same thing is happening to me, no matter what I do the camera starts when you play the video if you try to change it, it just goes to full view again!

I'm having the same issue as Cindy is.

I keep following the steps but no matter what I do, my "zoom" happens the moment my video begins playing, even though the camera bar is a couple of seconds away. I must be missing something. :-).
