To zoom out the camera in a map using MapKit, you can adjust the map's region to cover a larger area. This can be done by setting a new region with a larger span. Here's a basic example in Swift:

let coordinate = CLLocationCoordinate2D(latitude: 37.7749, longitude: -122.4194) // Example coordinates
let span = MKCoordinateSpan(latitudeDelta: 0.1, longitudeDelta: 0.1) // Adjust these values to zoom out
let region = MKCoordinateRegion(center: coordinate, span: span)
mapView.setRegion(region, animated: true)

In this code, latitudeDelta and longitudeDelta determine the zoom level. Increasing these values will zoom out the map, showing a larger area.
