Take photos when recording video

There are many people who do not know that you can take a photo while recording a video without having to stop the recording. This is done in a very simple way, by clicking on the white button that appears above the red recording button in the video interface of the application.

Modify the blur of portraits

The Google camera app allows us to take portraits with both the front and rear cameras. Be careful, the software knows when we use the camera to take photos of a person or not.

In the event that this is the case, when editing the photo in Google Photos we can modify the intensity of the blur, from zero to a very pronounced one.

Night mode in front camera

Night mode is one of the biggest advances in camera apps. Many times it allows us to take a photo that would otherwise be almost unusable.

Well, with this app we can use the night mode even with the front camera so selfies at night or indoors will be much better.

Take RAW photos with this camera app

If we want to edit the photos in a more professional way, we have the possibility of activating the RAW shooting mode, which will create two files, a JPG in case we want to share it and a RAW perfect to edit in apps like Lightroom.

Record video in slow motion

Finally, note that this camera application enables slow motion video recording. It is not the slowest on the market, of course, but it allows you to use this function on mobiles that do not have it available.

To enable this option we have to go to the More section of the lower menu of the camera.
