I bought my Air 2 back in May shortly after the release and love it.

Wondering why when take a picture vs shoot video it creates a zoom? I have noticed if I go to video, it seems to do a digital zoom (crop) of 25%. If I shoot a Hyperlapse it is another 25%. This is aggravating when doing a TimeLapse of the sun and then trying to add a video or photo from the same position. Is there anything that I can do to make them all the same so edits are clean.
 
Stabilized video often has a crop, this is how the software is able to correct any shakiness. (of course the physical gimbal itself does a lot of work there too)

This is normal. Even your phones camera does the same thing.
