Using Zoe camera

Don’t let the best moments just pass by. When timing is everything, capture the exact moment with
HTC One (E8) and get more than just a still photo.

With just a convenient button in Zoe camera mode, you can:

§

Take a photo.

§

Capture a combo of burst shots and a 3-second video clip for advanced editing features in
Gallery, such as Sequence Shot, Always Smile, and Object Removal. See

Gallery

on page 75

for details.

§

Record a longer video and also capture burst shots during the first three seconds.

Some camera features are not available when you’re using Zoe camera, such as zooming.

1. Open the Camera app.

2. Switch to Zoe camera mode. To find out how to switch between capture modes, see

Choosing

a capture mode

on page 63.

3. Tap

once to take a photo.

4. Press and hold

for three seconds to capture a burst shot and a 3-second video clip.

5. To continue recording video, press and hold

until you see the Locked status right above

.

When taking your burst shots with a 3-second video clip, it's good practice to:

§

Keep HTC One (E8) steady to capture moving subjects against a static background scene.

§

If using Sequence Shot to stitch different action shots into one photo, encourage the subject to
make obvious lateral movements.

§

When taking a group photo, ask your subjects to hold the pose until you have finished capturing.

Using HDR

When shooting portraits against a bright background, use HDR, short for High Dynamic Range, to
capture your subjects clearly. HDR brings out the details of both the highlights and shadows, even in
high contrast lighting.

HDR works best when your subject is steady. The camera takes multiple shots at different
exposure levels and combines them into one enhanced photo.

1. Open the Camera app.

2. Switch to Camera mode. To find out how to switch between capture modes, see

capture mode
