Timeshift video

You can record video at the high frame rate of 120 frames per second and then apply effects so you can play back parts or all of the video in slow motion.

Background defocus mode

Use your camera's blurred background effect to make your subjects look sharper and more vivid in comparison with their background. In Background defocus mode, the camera takes two shots, identifies the background and then blurs it while keeping the subject sharp and in focus. It's just like shooting with a digital SLR camera. You can select from three different blur variations and tune the blur level in the preview display.

Face in

You can use the Face in mode to turn on the front and main cameras at the same time, so you can take a photo of yourself together with the subject.

Multi camera

The Multi camera mode lets you take a photo from multiple angles by connecting with other cameras or Xperia™ devices. When connected to other devices, the image through the viewfinder of each device appears on the same screen of your device.
