My iPhone 3GS turned the spectacular flashes of color into small colorful specks and I realized that what this camera needed was a zoom function."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/at/auto/1248303046.usr105634.jpg" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></em></p><p>From the sounds of it, the writer has located his zoom function. This is <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=311657409&mt=8" target="_blank">Camera Zoom 1.1</a> from <a href="http://www.kenditech.com/Applications/Entries/2009/4/17_Camera_Zoom.html" target="_blank">Kenditech</a>, updated so that it works with the 3.0 software. It has a 4x digital zoom, and you can touch the screen anywhere to take the picture. The best part is that it only costs $0.99 USD, so it may be worth the gamble if you really want that zoom feature.</p>
