Binocular zoom and screenshot key?

[KEY (DayZ) 11]

Hey fellow survivors,

i'm playing for around a week now and still couldn't figure out two things that trouble my mind (I tried the search funtction, but didnt find anything)

- do the binoculars (normal or military) have an option to zoom in and out? In the control options there's keys for zoom in/out, but those don't do anything with the binoculars (so I guess you simply can't zoom)

- I can't find a way to take screenshots ingame, is there a key that I did not see in the control options? Are you guys probably using a third party software to take screenshots?

Any help is greatly appreciated and might net you some beans ;) , and sorry if this questions were asked earlier (like I said, I didn't find anything via search).

Uhm... yeah, and you need to reload your hatchet before you can swing it at enemies, and even I am able to repair and fly a helicopter.

Wow... I have no clue what your post has to do with my opening questions, but well... whatever :)

Oh and btw. I am not born after the 90s either, so what? :P

If you are using steam just press f12 in game,then you can have a screenshot

There IS a screen shot key if you play via Steam - just hit F12 and you'll hear a camera shutter noise. :thumbsup:

Got myself a third party screenshot tool, so it kinda works now for me... any volunteer models? ;)
