Auto motion photos
When set to Auto, your camera will only record a motion photo if it detects movement in the scene. Otherwise, it's saved as a still image to save space.
Capture both sides of the story
Now you can record yourself and the action in front of you. Just tap the dual recording icon in the Video mode quick controls to start filming with the front and rear cameras at the same time.
Log video color previews in real time
