Key features:
- Enhanced configuration of product galleries

Two outstanding image plugins, Cloud Zoom and Fancybox, are now both integrated into the Magento Product View Gallery extension.
Cloud Zoom is a popular fly-out jQuery image zoom plugin used on many high profile retail sites. It is a mature and reliable image zoom solution. FancyBox is a tool for displaying images, html content and multi-media in a Mac-style “lightbox” that floats overtop of web page.
Along with using modules, admin can add videos to product pages and configure scrolling through thumbnails. Nothing now prevents you from making all product galleries irresistibly perfect!
