The Pan and zoom effect is found in the Fun Effects
group. Most of the available parameter settings are
exactly parallel to those offered by the Clip properties
tool: you can set Zoom, Horizontal position and
Vertical position in both the Start and End parameter
groups.
You have an additional option in the Speed dropdown,
which sets a “velocity envelope” for the traversal from
the start to the end positions. With “Speed-up and
slow-down”, “Speed-up at start” and “Slow-down at
end”, the moving frame gradually accelerates to
“cruising speed” near the beginning of its motion, or
decelerates towards the end rather than stopping
abruptly, or both. The motion usually appears more
natural when one of these is applied than with the
remaining choice, “Constant speed”.
