zoom lens
A zoom lens is a type of camera lens that is adjustable, allowing the photographer to alter the distance between the camera and the subject without moving the camera itself. It can change the magnification of the image, ranging from a wide-angle perspective to a closer, detailed view, through changing its focal length. This makes zoom lenses versatile and suitable for different types of photography, such as landscapes, portraits, and close-ups.

Zoom lens
A zoom lens is a mechanical assembly of lens elements for which the focal length can be varied, as opposed to a fixed focal length lens. A true zoom lens, also called a parfocal lens, is one that maintains focus when its focal length changes. A lens that loses focus during zooming is more properly called a varifocal lens. A loss that zoom lenses suffer, is in wide open aperture image quality and maybe other loses, since there is no perfect lens. All lenses are a compromise of features-size, weight, price, focal length range, image quality, autofocus performance, build quality and other features.
