# videoScaleAndCropFactor

The current scale and crop factor the video output uses.

## Declaration

```swift
var videoScaleAndCropFactor: CGFloat { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion The property only applies to a video connection. You can set this property to a value in the range [1.0, ``AVCaptureConnection/videoMaxScaleAndCropFactor```]. A factor of 1.0` keeps the image at its original. Factors greater than `1.0` scale the image up and center-crop the image to its original dimensions.
