Using the front camera

It’s easy taking photos and videos of yourself. While on the Viewfinder screen, tap MENU > Switch Camera.

Some camera features are not available while you’re using the front camera, such as auto focusing, zooming, and using flash and face detection.

Zooming

Before taking a photo or video, you can first use the onscreen zoom bar to zoom in or out of your subject.

Simply slide your finger across the zoom bar to zoom in or out.

When you’re recording video, the zoom bar is always shown onscreen. You can freely zoom in or out while recording.

If you choose 720p HD resolution for video recording, there’s no zooming available.
