Video zoomed in?

Thanks for replying. My fears have been confirmed.

Yeah, the problem only happens when it's set to 1280x720. I forgot to mention that in the original post. Choosing a lower resolution is not a valid solution. This has to be some kind of inherent malfunction of these tablets.

I didn't have enough time to try out every single thing on this Tab before the return window expired at the store... because this was a present mailed to me from halfway around the world. If I had known about this issue, I would have immediately returned it to the store here in town. This is absolutely unacceptable. I'm going to give Samsung heck over this. I won't give up. I need a replacement that properly works or a refund... I hope they will understand this problem better after I show them comparison videos.

What I have also noticed is that the 640x480 and 320x240 resolutions are a lot darker than 1280x720. Increasing the brightness all the way does little to help with that. And these are the only 3 resolutions available. There should be many more.

3rd party apps give me an option to choose alternate resolutions. I have tried about 25 different free apps and only one of them lets me pick the highest resolution - and it automatically zooms in.

The smoothness of the recordings greatly suffers using all the other apps. All recordings end up with too much motion blur unless I have the option to pick 'sports mode' but then the picture is very, very dark. The default camera app records perfectly smooth videos. I'm about to go nuts over this. It's like I'm trying to make do with late 90's digital camera technology all over again.
