Allows change of lenses without zooming during video recording

When you first start up momentprocamera in video mode, you'll see indicators for the three lenses, 100mm, 24mm and 13mm, that are on the iPhone 17 Pro. Thats's great!

But as soon as you click to start recording, the three lens indicators disappear and are replaced by a zoom control. Why?

As a filmmaker, I want to have full control over which lenses I use. That's for many different reasons. But with the zoom control, I have no idea what lens is being used. That's not good.

Slow zooming in and out feels very amateurish. It was something that people loved to do in the 20th century. But today, you want to be able to jump quick and easily between Normal, Tele and Wide Angle. It like making a cut and saves a lot of time when the film later is being edited.

Please, can't you arrange so that you can choose whether you want to keep the lens indicators while filming or if you want to have the zoom control.
