Methods and systems for intelligently zooming to and capturing a first image of a feature of interest are provided. The feature of interest may be determined based on a first interest criteria. The captured image may be provided to a user, who may indicate a level of interest in the feature of interest. The level of interest may be based upon to store the captured image and capture another image. The level of interest may be a gradient value, or a binary value. The level of interest may be based upon to determine whether to store the captured image, and if so, a resolution at which the captured image is to be stored. The level of interest may also be based upon to determine whether to zoom to and capture a second image of a second feature of interest based on the first interest criteria or a second interest criteria.
