Hi Andrew
It looks like both mergAVCam and the cameraControl in the Indy+ engines need to
be updated to use APIs added in iOS 11 for `minAvailableVideoZoomFactor` and
`maxAvailableVideoZoomFactor`. The multiple lens back camera is treated as one
device and it switches between the lenses depending on the zoom factor. If you
would like to open a report about this so it gets prioritised that would be
great.
Cheers
Monte
