Has anyone ever used this setting and what is its purpose?
What is unknown here, single autofocus -focus only central "area" of photos and multi as you can see, has 5 "areas" (4 around central) that autofocus on...

Is there anyway to over ride the auto focus feature on the phone, and just set it to infinity of some such. I find between the time I press the shutter and whe the focus has finished faffing around, my subject has wandered off
you can turn off autofocus in the camera settings.
Hi!
I've been trying to create photos and videos about objects that are close to the camera, but the phone always focuses on the background.
Are there any way to get manual focus? (Set lenses manually) - maybe from another device/rom?
I know, there is a touch to focus in photo mode, can be usefull sometimes but not perfect.
If no chance to manual focus, how can I use the Touch To Focus option while video recording? - That can't be hardware limitation, as we can use it in photo mode.
Thanks.
I use single auto focus while shooting video, works quite well for me...
hello all...
was just wondering if i can lock the focus while shooting in 4k mode ? Coz leaving it on auto in bad light causes blurred videos...
actually...ive noticed u cant lock focus on ALL video modes...!
Is that correct ? Or am i missing something?
I have been annoyed by this too! It's frustrating to have it constantly refocus itself.

Sony needs to rework the entire camera software as alot of stuff are missing and/or needs fixing (i have complete confidence the hardware is top notch...just the softwate quality doesnt quite match it).
Unfortunately for us, a good camera is hardware + software. For Z2 to become a great camera phone (from just a good one) we need:
- ISO preview (you can change it but you can't see the effect on the screen)
- all modes available on 15 and 20 MPx
- better software alltogether
right, so just to confirm and clarify
- there is no way to change how the focus works?
- it can't be set not to refocus every few seconds?
- is there any chance it will ever be fixed in an update, eg. lolipop? Could someone confirm if it isnt already fixed?
To be honest, the video recording is terrible, the image is sharp and blur on and off, making the video unwatcheable and makes the film-watchers question, whether I used my calculator to record a video. This is riduculous with this kind of phone ('best camera phone there is')
Hello Everyone
How do you enable and or tell of OIS and EIS are enabled?
When I go into the settings for the stock camera app there is a toggle switch labeld "video stabilization" in the "common" section but it is set to off and grayed out. Note this is when using the rear camera. If I switch to the front camera this toggle switch is now no longer grayed out and is set to on.
Thank You
I think it depends on the resolution, try lowering resolution and see. The way EIS works, it needs extra pixels around visible frame, to shift whole recorded frame, so object stays in the same spot on frame even if the lens points differently due to shake. Either there is not enough extra pixels to compensate, or not enough CPU power to calculate the frame shift, not sure which, so not available in certain modes.
Solution
It would seem that one cannot have both video stabilization and tracking AF enabled. Once I turned off tracking AF the video stabilization toggle was no longer grayed out.
Hi,
I'm looking for apps or other modes that can use the multiple camera's on the S10 Exynos at the same time.
Previously my S7 could take a photo with the back and front camera at the same time, this option has disappeared apparantly. It was called Dual Camera mode
Also missing :
- Video collage (4 videos , shot in sequence, as 1 videogrid)
- Virtual shot
- Surround shot
thanks for any feedback
