I have the P4P+ (Built in Display)
Can I use the zoom feature with this display?
I have tried setting the video to 1080P and 2K and still cannot zoom in videos.
Any help would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

You cannot zoom with the p4p or p4p+

There is a digital zoom feature (usually invoked by pinching or stretching two fingers on screen) that is available , BUT I think it is for IOS devices only (which rules out the Android '+' display).

It allows you to zoom in and out of video in real time when recording. One of the hidden gems.
I've just tried it out and it works up to 2.7k (but not 4k, or UHD that I always use) on my P4 and iPad Pro.

All digital zoom features work by cropping the image, so as you 'zoom' in, you are losing resolution. If you must use a digital zoom, then it is far better done in post production editing packages than in the camera itself. Or more simply, move the aircraft closer in to the subject.

Thanks for the info.
Trying to zoom in on bears and moose, wildlife. If you get to close you spook them (not Good).
I watched some YouTube haha and seen where people were doing it with a P4P. Now that I think about it,
I recall they were using IOS tablets.

Haven't got started on post production addiction, yet. It"s coming though.

Zoom feature is not  available in Phantom4pro or + dji  the have removed the future it's fixed lens camera

I sad that of the 2nd post of this topic

If you want to use digital zoom,  than do it in post
