Hi guys,
Based on community requests, we’ve started design work for the upcoming Zoom feature in Media Viewer.
Here’s a first prototype for your review:

A more detailed specification is outlined here:
https://wikimedia.mingle.thoughtworks.com/projects/multimedia/cards/167
What you think?
These first designs were prepared by Pau Giner and and Kaity Hammerstein and they’d love to hear your feedback.
You can comment here on this email list — or on this discussion page:

Once we hear from you, we’ll start development in a few weeks, and we hope this feature can make a lot of users happy :)
Thanks!
Fabrice

Looks like a great start!
The thing I tried doing immediately, which I consider an essential feature for any photo zooming interface I would want to use, is zooming by scrolling the mouse wheel. As a photo person, I'm used to doing this all the time as part of my workflow for editing and viewing photos on my computer.

I can imagine that you might what to use horizontal scroll for slideshows and vertical scroll to reach the info footer though. How about shift scrolling for zooming ?

As Derk-Jan mentioned, we need to be careful when overloading shortcuts such as scroll. The idea is to use regular scroll for opening the information panel when the image is not zoomed, and to move (pan) the image when zoom is applied which I think will meet user expectations (especially in touch-enabled devices).
Having said that, a shortcut for zooming makes a lot of sense (especially it it takes into account the cursor position to allow indicating the area to be zoomed).
Using shift+scroll for zoom makes sense in this context. In addition to that, we can have keyboard shortcuts ("+" and "-").
We can even consider using regular scroll to zoom when it happens over the zoom control or the thumbnail overview (since the zooming intent is more obvious there).

In other such applications I recall of often seeing double-click for zoom in (not sure what the pendant for zoom out would be though :)
