Ah yes. Harvey is correct, pro's hardly zoom, unless it is for a
specific effects. The reason behind this is that you can't zoom with
you eyes either, so the only wat to see somthing closer, is to move
in. This has to do with keeping the perspective "real" as well.
In current tv, the editors have become so lazy and stupid, that they
don't know how to cut properly anymore, so they leave the zooms in.
One day somebody did this, and someone else saw it, and thought it was
a cool effect, done on purpose. But that of course is non-sense: the
editor who introduced it (or the channel which let rubbish like this
pass), should get it's ten fingers chopped off and his eyes poked out,
so he can never edit again.

Another one of those trendy gimmicks is speeding-up the images. Don't
get me started about that...... :-))
