Amusing but, honestly, I have never found power zoom and all that business to be of any use at all. I've had several fixed-lens cameras that had it and it was always in my way, I turned off all tracking and wish I'd been able to turn off power zoom functions. I much prefer a zoom control that operates precisely, manually, when I want to use a zoom lens.
