Zoom and dolly are both camera movements used in filmmaking and photography.
Zoom refers to changing the focal length of a camera lens to make the subject appear closer or further away without physically moving the camera. This creates the effect of zooming in or out on the subject.
Dolly refers to physically moving the entire camera and its support system (such as a tripod or dolly track) towards or away from the subject. This creates the effect of the camera moving closer to or further away from the subject.
