Does Wyze Cam OG Telephoto 3x use an optical or digital zoom?

Wyze Cam OG Telephoto 3x uses both types of zoom!

Wyze Cam OG Telephoto 3x has a set 3x optical zoom that can’t be changed. However, you can zoom in further using the 8x digital zoom in the Wyze app. 

💡 Optical zoom uses the lens to physically magnify the image, while digital zoom enlarges the image electronically by cropping and enlarging the image.

To digitally zoom your Telephoto 3x:

  1. In the Wyze app, navigate to your Wyze Cam OG's Live stream. 
  2. Double-tap or pinch to zoom in and out.
