Do I have any controls to change settings on the built-in camera? 

 

It engages automatically in applications that require video. I would like to get a tighter shot (zoom in).

 

Tx for any guidance.

I reviewed your post and I understand that the webcam is turning on automatically in the applications.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

I recommend you follow the below steps and check if it helps.

 

Start  button, select Settings  > Privacy > Camera, and then turn off Let apps use my camera. 

 

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!

I  am not trying to turn the camera off. 

 

I am trying to find out if there are any settings on the camera. I want to get a tighter shot.

There is no such option on the webcam.
