Camera modes
Camera modes allow you to determine the ideal mode for your pictures or
choose from several shooting modes.
From Camera, you can swipe the screen right and left to change shooting
modes.
1. Photo
Photo is the default mode. You can swipe left and right to switch between
different Camera modes. You'll find the button for switching between the
front and rear camera on the start page as well.
2. Portrait
Switch to Portrait mode and follow the on-screen instructions to make
photos with blurred background.
• Rear camera: Mi 11 uses both cameras to keep the subject sharp and
blur the background.
• Front camera: Get beautiful portrait shots using software. You can make
portrait shots using the front camera by pressing the special button in
the Photo mode on some devices.
3. Video
Switch to Video mode to shoot videos. Tap the More icon at the top of
the screen to select time-lapse and slow motion options.
4. Pro
Manually adjust the ISO sensitivity, exposure value, white balance, and
color tone while taking pictures.
5. More:
Choose other available shooting modes. Tap Edit to drag modes into or out
of the Modes tray at the bottom of the Camera screen.
• Panorama
Your phone takes multiple photos in Panorama mode and then combines
them into a seamless shot. Tap the shutter button to start, then follow
instructions. Tap again or move your phone till the end of the viewfinder
area to finish.
(Note: Moving your phone too fast may interrupt the process. Stable
speed and fixed angles give best results.)
• Short video
Use this mode to shoot videos up to 10 seconds long. A special set of
filters will make shooting and editing your videos before sharing them on
various social media platforms much more convenient.
