Unable to focus while recording? - Nokia Lumia 920

Hello,
When using Autofocus during video recordings, the image will slightly zoom in-and-out every few seconds or so. One way around that is to turn off autofocus.
However, I played with a 920 in the Microsoft store and noticed that once autofocus is turned off, you can no longer manually focus while recording. Is that true? Is there no way to focus during recordings if autofocus is turned off?
Thanks

[Q] I want to use rear camera only with Skype

I have a Samsung 7.7 P6800 and I use it as a video surveillance camera with Skype.
In Skype settings I set the automatic answer with video and everything works fine.
The front canera is used by default but I would like to use the rear camera only since it has a better definition.
during the video call there is an option in skype for selecting the camera but working in automatic answer mode it's useless.
I don't need the front camera and I am ready to desable it but I need to keep the rear camera working.
I didn't find any app, can somebody suggest something?
Thanks.

Security camera

Hello all,
due to a recent security incidence at my house, I have decided to install some cameras. I read online about using old android phones and I think it's a very good idea, so I bought 5 old android phones with led lights and what I would like to do is the following:
The cameras would start recording/taking photos when motion or sound is detected, and send me a notification. As well, if it's dark, I would like the led light to turn on before it records/takes photos otherwise it would be useless.
I was wondering if anyone knows of any app that would have both the motion and sound detection and the recording feature enabling the flash only when it's needed?
Thanks!

Help with unlocking to camera

Hi all,
Looking to see if its possible to set up either a N5 or G3 so that when it is unlocked the LED flash comes on automatically and the phone/app switches direct to the rear facing camera. I do not need the ability to use any other apps or take a video or picture - in fact it would be preferably if this is the only thing the phone could do when unlocked it with absolutely everything else disabled on the phone - maybe even with the touch screen disabled and it's woken and unlocked automatically by a press of the power button.
I will be recording the output via slimport/hdmi so all i really need the phone for is as a webcam / so the person viewing it can see what the camera is looking at.
Any help appreciated.
