Zoom-n-Pan is very useful when making videos for the small screen. This feature allows you to zoom and pan in a specific area smoothly showing specific area in details, and focus your audience’s attention on important screen movements or actions to make your point clearly. Now more and more screen recorders come to introduce this feature that provides full visual clarity when replaying on a smaller screen. Here I have collected 7 screen recorders with the zoom-n-pan feature, you may pick up the one that fits your need.

Put the zoom object on the area of the slides you want to enlarge for emphasis. When editing, the zoom area is displayed and can be easily repositioned or resized with the mouse. If you link up two zoom objects, you can see the panning effect.

2. Captivate

Captivate from Adobe lets you create powerful and engaging Flash-based simulations, software demonstrations, and scenario-based training without programming knowledge or multimedia skills. Captivate 4 has just been released.

To achieve the zoom-n-pan effect in Captivate, you need to put a zoom object to select the area. It works like a magnifying glass on your screen.

3. Camtasia

6. DemoBuilder

Set the zoom scale and time for the key frames. Adjust the parameter by dragging the parameter to left or right. You may find setting your zoom target area confusing if you are not familiar with this screen recorder.

7. TipCam

The only free application supports Pan-n-Zoom so the recording area can easily follow the movements of your mouse cursor. The Pan-n-Zoom feature is controlled by some hot key when recording. Not that convenient for users.
