If you want easy: GifCam (make sure to get from the official dev [0]). It lacks zoom in/out features but is one of the easiest way to creates gifs on Windows.

If you want easy: GifCam (make sure to get from the official dev [0]). It lacks zoom in/out features but is one of the easiest way to creates gifs on Windows. If you want zoom in/out (not as easy) you'll need to record a video where this is a feature, then convert the video to a .gif. I know Camtasia Studio can do this. I never found it all that intuitive and it would often zoom when I didn't want it to, but I didn't spend long learning the specifics so I factor that as user error.
