Camera zoom level and image frame capture control

A method comprising:

• causing a display to output a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface including a first element;
• receiving, from a user input surface, a first user input type including movement of an input element relative to the user input surface;
• controlling a first imaging operation based on the first input type;
• causing the first element to move relative to the user input surface while the first input type is received;
• and
• controlling a second imaging operation based on a second input type, wherein the second imaging operation includes an image frame capture operation or a video capture operation, and wherein the second input type is received after the first input type and includes an interaction with the first element of the graphical user interface by the input element.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions thereon that when executed cause one or more processors to:

• cause the display to output a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface including a first element;
• receive, from the user input surface, a first user input type including movement of an input element relative to the user input surface;
• control a first imaging operation based on the first input type;
• cause the first element to move relative to the user input surface while the first input type is received;
• and
• control a second imaging operation based on a second input type, wherein the second imaging operation includes an image frame capture operation or a video capture operation, and wherein the second input type is received after the first input type and includes an interaction with the first element of the graphical user interface by the input element.
