There is a variation, MOZ, as learned during a film shoot of a documentary on Sammy Davis Jr. years ago. It was pronounced "moose" and confused all of us as it was fervently whispered to the cameraman by the director. European crew, american director. We thought it odd to ask for" MOS" at that particular time.... In any case it turned out to be the inverse to zoom, that is zoom out, hence MOOZ. Mike Reichel
