About ZoomIt
ZoomIt is a screen zoom, annotation, and recording tool for technical presentations and demos. It is listed as part of Sysinternals on Microsoft Learn and was written by Mark Russinovich for use in presentations. It runs in the system tray and is controlled with customizable hotkeys.
You can zoom in on an area of the screen, move around while zoomed, and draw on the zoomed image. You can also draw on the screen without zooming, add typed text, use whiteboard and blackboard modes, and use touch and pen input on tablets. Other functions include a break countdown timer, screenshots saved to clipboard or PNG file, cropped screen capture, screen recording to MP4 or GIF, and copying text from a screen region.
It suits presenters and instructors who need to highlight parts of the screen during live demos. Configuration on first run lets you set hotkeys and pen color and size.
