Patent ID: 8762895

Claim:
A method, comprising: outputting, by a computing device, for display at a display device, a graphical user interface comprising a graphical zoom indicator associated with a zoom operation of a camera, wherein the graphical zoom indicator includes an inner fixed circle, an outer fixed circle, and an adjustable circle, wherein: the inner fixed circle, the outer fixed circle, and the adjustable fixed circle are concentric circles, the diameter of the adjustable fixed circle is greater than or equal to the diameter of the inner fixed circle, the diameter of the adjustable fixed circle is less than or equal to the diameter of the outer fixed circle, a size of the inner fixed circle defines a minimum zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera, a size of the outer fixed circle defines a maximum zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera, and a size of the adjustable circle defines a current zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera; receiving, by the computing device, an indication of a gesture detected at an input device operatively coupled to the computing device; determining, by the computing device, based at least in part on a feature of the gesture, an adjustment to the current zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera; and updating, by the computing device, based at least in part on the adjustment to the current zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera, the graphical user interface to modify the size of the adjustable circle based at least in part on the adjustment to the current zoom level of the zoom operation of the camera.
