You can adjust the image through Settings => Video Settings, then pinch (spread) to zoom.

i don’t know if this is the same as adjusting the FoV on the Ultra. I suspect you lose resolution since this is a digital zoom.

@AncientGeek , yer right on the need to use pinch zoom and that it's simply a mask to eliminate part of the scene. Don't forget that the PIR is not affected so you still get detection outside of the zoom box unless you use activity zones. And, no, the Ultra is a different beast.
