A zoom error is an error that occurs when a user tries to zoom in or out on an image using a digital camera or other similar device. This error can happen for a number of reasons, but it typically occurs when the user is trying to zoom in on an image that is too small or too far away. Additionally, this error can also occur if the user is trying to zoom out on an image that is too large or too close up.
