might be easier if you upload one to youtube and share it so we can figure out what you are talking about

Its the 1080p feature. 720p looks perfectly fine or even better.

I do a lot of video recording and at 1080p it looks to be 1:1 ratio.

Most of us are used to recording at lower resolutions which have a different ratio.

It threw me off at first too.

You're right, mine does that as well, and once I change it to 720, it zooms back out.

Anyone think this could be fixed with a rom?

Just noticed this myself!
On 1080p it looks zoomed in.
On 720p depending which way you shoot it it looks good, but when you rotate the phone and it switches to different viewing screen it looks zoomed in.

A review (forgot which) mentioned the 1080p uses another sensor in the lens whereas 720p uses the wide? Totally misquoted but tldr: its hardware based. Just stand back a bit.
