Hi, the inbuilt laptop camera has quite a wide view, however,when starting Zoom meetings the FOV of my image in Zoom becomes very narrow.

Tried checking in settings however couldnt find anything to address this issue.

 

Does anyone know why? Does Zoom always narrows the FOV?

 

Thank you,

Ana

Hi, @Ana-Maryam 

Turning on Original ratio in the video settings of the client app may work!

When off, the top and bottom or left and right will be cut off for fitting to a 16:9 screen.
When on, all video captured by the camera will be displayed.
