Manual mode
Use Manual mode when you want to manually adjust your camera settings for taking
photos and videos.
AR effect
You can apply AR (augmented reality) effects to your photos or videos and make
them more fun. When using the camera, this setting lets you integrate 3D scenes into
your photos or videos. Just select the scene you want and adjust its position in the
viewfinder.
Creative effect
You can apply different effects on your photos or videos. For example, you can add a
Nostalgic effect to make photos look older or a Sketch effect for a more fun image.

direction in an easy press-and-sweep motion.

Face in picture
You can use the Face in picture 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 mode
Multi camera mode lets you take a photo that combines images from two different
angles and devices. You see two images in the camera viewfinder of your device –
one from your own camera and one from a connected Xperia™ device or a Sony
camera that supports NFC and Wi-Fi Direct™ technology. You can then edit what
you see in the viewfinder before taking a photo.
So if you're at a concert venue, for example, and you want to capture a photo that
combines a view of the band from one angle and the audience from another, you can
use Multi camera mode for the best effect.
You can set up Multi camera mode using NFC, which launches the pairing of the two
devices using Wi-Fi Direct™ technology.
