    I just had a neat little thought. There is an expression that calculates the distance between two objects (I don’t feel like searching for it). You could make your layers 3D and apply that expression to magnify effect. When you move the magnify glass(null layer) away from the background, it will increase the magnification.

    Anyone know that expression?

    And would I enounter a problem with the mask size? I don’t think so.
