Record Dual-View Videos

In Dual-view mode, you can capture two different perspectives at once by independently filming on two cameras – using both the front and rear cameras or just the rear camera setup – instead of one. When using the front and rear cameras, the dual view shows what's captured by the front camera and the rear camera side by side. When using just the rear camera setup, the dual view shows a panorama and a close-up of the center of what is being filmed.

  1. Go to Camera > More, and select Dual-view mode.

  2. Frame your subject in the viewfinder and choose whether to use both the front and rear cameras or just the rear camera setup.

    • To capture images from both the front and rear cameras, touch to generate a dual view front camera and rear camera display. You can pinch in or out on the viewfinder to adjust the zoom level of the view captured by the rear camera. Touch the screen twice to swap the positions of the images.

      In Dual-view mode, touch to enable Picture in Picture mode. You can also tap the small window twice to swap the positions of the images, or drag the window to any other location. Touch to return to split-screen mode.

    • To use just the rear cameras for dual-view recording, touch to switch to the rear camera. A panoramic view and a close-up of the center of the panorama will be displayed in split-screen mode in the viewfinder.

      You can adjust the zoom level by pinching in or out on the viewfinder. Touch the screen twice to swap the positions of the panorama and close-up views.

  3. Touch to start recording, and touch to stop recording.

Choose the Sound Source You Want to Pick Up in Dual-view Mode

You can decide which direction you want to pick up sound from in Dual-view mode. For instance, when using the dual-rear Dual-view mode, you can pick up sound from either the panoramic or close-up view. When using the front and rear Dual-view mode, you can pick up sound from the front or rear.

Some phones do not support front and rear Dual-view mode.

  1. Go to Camera > More and select Dual-view.

  2. Point your phone at the scene you want to record, touch in the viewfinder, and choose which view you want to pick up sound from as prompted.

    • When using the dual-rear Dual-view mode, you can pick up sound from either the panoramic or close-up view. If you choose to pick up sound from the close-up view, your phone can focus on the sound of the subject you are shooting, and the sound turns up as you zoom in. For instance, you can zoom in on the subject by pinching out on the viewfinder or dragging the zoom slider up. In doing so, the recorded sound of the subject will become clearer.

    • When using the front and rear Dual-view mode, you can pick up sound from either the front or rear. For instance, when you are filming different subjects with the front and rear cameras, you can choose which subject you want to focus on.

  3. Touch the shutter button to start recording.
