Timeshift video
You can record video at the high frame rate of 120 frames per second and then apply
effects so that you can play back parts or all of the video in slow motion.
Background defocus mode
Use your camera's blurred background effect to make your subjects look sharper and
more vivid in comparison to their background. In Background defocus mode, the
camera takes two shots, identifies the background and then blurs it while keeping the
subject sharp and in focus. It's just like shooting with a digital SLR camera. You can
select from three different blur variations and tune the blur level in the preview
display.
Face in
You can use the Face in 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
The Multi camera mode lets you take a photo from multiple angles by connecting
with other cameras or Xperia™ devices. When connected to other devices, the image
through the viewfinder of each device appears on the same screen of your device.
