Camera interface and behaviour after ICS update - questions.

Hi everybody,

I am a new user of Xperia Mini.

As the upgrade to the ICS is not easily reversible, I would like to know what exact changes to camera interface/behaviour are introduced in the update.

Particularly:

- is the touch focus still available?

- can the big shutter button be hidden?

Best regards,

GS

What about my two initial questions - touch focus and hiding the shutter button?

And is it really true that the video sound is stereo in GB and mono after the update? Thinking_Face
