Viewfinder icons

Shot mode

The Shot mode icon is only available on the rear lens Auto camera mode viewfinder. It sets how the picture or video will be taken.

  • Auto takes a normal shot.

  • Multi-View takes photos or videos in different views with the front and rear cameras. The viewfinder is divided into sections. Tap the Collage icon to set how you want it divided. Only one shot section is active at a time (the other sections are dimmed) and each collage follows a set sequence. Swipe the active section to swap lenses if necessary, then take the first picture. The next section automatically activates for you to capture the next collage shot.

  • Panorama allows you to pan your phone slowly in one direction to take continuous photos which the camera combines into a single wide photo.

  • Slo-mo takes slow-motion video footage.

  • Time-lapse allows you to take time-lapse video footage.

Image format

The Image format icon is only available on the rear lens Manual photo mode viewfinder. It sets the format for the image.

  • JPG sets the image to the standard JPG format.

  • RAW JPG sets the camera to save the image in JPEG and DNG formats. This allows for more control when editing, but it can take up more memory space.

Stabilizer

Stabilizer is displayed on the Manual video mode viewfinder and in the settings for the rear lens Auto camera mode. Turn it on to reduce the amount of distortion from unsteady hands while recording.
