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. Both devices must support NFC.

device – one from the viewfinder of your camera and another from the viewfinder
of the connected device.

it to the other side of the viewfinder to change the order.
