[Q] 'Lock' camera video recording - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Howdy,
I am trying to figure out how to "lock" the camera during a video recording. On my old Galaxy S, if I press the power button during vid record
then the camera would lock and pressing any buttons (except power again) or touching the screen would not affect the video being recorded. I cannot find this feature on my Note 3. During video record the power button just turns off the screen and inturn stops the recording. The screen is so close to the edge that holding it anywhere except by the edges seems to turn off or otherwise change the recording.
Anyone know how to to lock recording?
Cheers.

uhhh.. camera button

First of all, the button works fine for taking screenshots/starting video recording while already in the camera app
thing is, when I'm on homescreen, and hold the camera button to turn camera app on, it doesn't do that
Try to press it as you take a picture, half way down to focus and then full down to shoot just try it and it works that way
rofl, very true
thanks !

Video recording issue

Does anyone know how to start to record videos with focus?
I'm asking because when I start to record any video, after I press the button, the image seems to be focused, but when I pres the button to start recording, the video turns blurry, and it takes some seconds to focus again.
Does anyone here have this issue?
Thanks!

Lock screen while playing video

Ever accidentally touch the capacitive buttons or the screen while watching a video causing the UI to show up? Want to stop that from happening? Just press the power button and volume button at the same time and it will lock out the capacitive buttons and the screen so you can watch your videos without interruptions. :good:

[Q] Video Camera as Default

Guys,
I really like how holding the down volume button when the phone is locked, takes me straight into the camera app without having to unlock. :highfive:
Is there any way to make it default to the Video Camera
Thanks.
If the video camera was the last thing you used, I think you should see the video camera instead of just the camera
If I'm using the phone and go into the camera then switch to Video, the next time I do the same it will remember that I'm in Video mode.
However, it never remembers when I go into the camera by pressing and holding the volume down key. :crying: This is what I'm trying to acheive

water photo problem

Friends who shoot underwater or something on the phone when I entered the water I didn't get a photo, opening recent apps, How do you do it you could help
capacitive buttons locked underwater ?
You can open the camera with three quick taps of the Home Button if enabled, which most of the time come enabled by default. Also, the volume rockers on the phone can be used to take pictures. It's normal for the capacitive screen and buttons to stop working since water activates the "whole" thing.
Hope this helps!
Cheers!
