Hi, so here Is the question, it possible to disable OIS (optical image stabilization) somehow ?
In the camera settings, you can only disable the Digital Image Stabilization. But the Optical Image Stabilization is like a system of springs maintaining the camera lens that compensate the physical movement of the phone. So, you can't disable it, it's not software, it's hardware. The only way to "disable" it would be to open your phone, get access to the camera lens, and stuff things around the lens to hold it in place, or something like that.

That's incorrect. OIS is physical, but it's also electronic. It uses data from your phone's accelerometer (and possibly gyro) to determine when the handset has moved, and compensates by shifting the lens slightly using (I believe) tiny electro magnets, all within a fraction of a second. Just Google "how does OIS work?" and you'll find a decent explanation. Whether or not you can disable it is another matter.
Now that we have "In screen fingerprint scanners", which is literally a super-short focal length camera taking the picture of your fingerprints, would it not be feasible to have a similar setup for the selfie camera. The region in and around the selfie camera should work as a screen under regular use and switch off when in selfie mode.
Due to the function required for this to work, the screen will have to be OLED or related technologies that can switch off part of the screen with no pixels light up those areas.
I would like tout take selfies but the caméra swish tout the 27mm sensor ans make a sensor zoom. How can i only use the top caméra lens (80mm) ?
I don't understand why you are trying to take selfies with the bank zoom camera, but open camera can do this, but I will say even at full arm length the zoom sensor will not be able to focus to you, this is probably with it's switching to the 27mm, so yeah with open camera when you switch camera it cycles all the sensors, but this sensor does not focus up close
I'm gonna purchase this phone but need to know if you can zoom during video recording?
At basic 4K30 setting does it switch cameras/lenses when you use the zoom slider?
Short answer is: nope.
At 4K30, with the standard camera app, you can select one of three lenses: ultra wide (0.5x), standard (1x) or the zoom lens (5x). With each your then have the option to digitally zoom in during filming, with the ultra wide then ranging from 0.5 to 2x, with the standard going from 1x to 6x and with the zoom lens you start at 5x and can zoom in to 15x zoom max. A slider will be on screen to help you with that. It's all digital zoom, so don't expect picture quality to remain the same.

This is bummer... Is it down to Xiaomi or it's the first phone with multiple cameras that can't switch on the fly during video recording ?!
OK that person is wrong. I zoom while recording all the time... I usually either use 720p to minimize file size or 4k60 for max quality. Maybe he's using the wrong mode.
My personal experience is exactly what Appelsap described. No way for me to switch cameras on the fly while recording video.
What about other apps like FIlmic PRO - do you have access to the other cameras?
In Filmic Pro I could only find the switch from back to front. Is there another way to access the other cameras?
So you can zoom, but only digitally using the same lens. You can't switch lenses to zoom even more during filming. I tested the 4K30 as was asked, didn't try other formats (720p/HD/8K) but expect the same result even then. Main issue would be that switching lenses would be noticable in the resulting film. The lenses are in a slightly different position on the phone - they have to be next to each other rather than on top of each other , so whilst zooming in or out you'd see the camera shift suddenly to a slightly different position. I doubt other multi-lens phones can switch camera's during filming, you'd notice it then too - but do correct me when I'm wrong and tell me how the software then solves the suddenly shifted perspective (or not).
Every other multicamera phone (as far as I know) is using different cameras (lenses) while video recording. My most current phone is Find X2 Pro and it is using all of the cameras, however they are not enabled in Filmic Pro, in comparison OnePlus 8 PRO is enabled and all cameras can be used in Filmic Pro but this is different topic.
So basically this is first high end camera centric phone that is unusable in video recording, what a shame... I will cancel my purchase then.....
My Find X2 Pro is the best package overall but I'm missing the 2x telephoto camera as there is quite a gap between the 25mm main camera and 130mm 5x periscope one.

It's not only the perspective. Different cameras have different aperture, meaning different exposure. So if you pay attention, you will notice that - it gets darker when the phone switches to 5x camera. Don't know what cameras and aperture have the other phones but I'm extremely interested in an example video zooming from UW all the way to periscope and producing usable picture quality in 4k.
Just wanted to let you know that on latest EU weekly, the switches cameras on fly during video recording 1800p.
I also confirm that the video produced is not the best quality as expected - changing the camera changes the exposure and focus too.
For 4k it doesn't switch cameras.

Just tried it, and you are so right. At 1080p it does switch lenses during zooming (in/out), which is very noticable in the result, so why you'd want that is beyond me really. But it is possible. I'd like to see another phone do this without changes to exposure and focus, that seems very unlikely to me.
Hi
While making a video of close objects Whenever the system shifts to zoom lens the saturation increases and colors become over saturated.
I make videos of gems and stones. and for that purpose i bought this camera.
Especially the blue stones become too blue when i zoom in and zoom lens turns on.
Is there a way where we can select individual lens manually so that the zoom lens doesn't turn on unless I want it.
Try with turned of AI. If nothing changes after that I don't know what can you do.
When the device switching between camera modules maybe is normal to have problems with saturation. All three camera modules have different apertures and they receive a different amount of light.
The only solution that I found is by using the pro mode and setting the white balance manually when the zoom lens turns on. By doing that the camera keeps the selected saturation even when the lens gets changed.
This is what I think. Need to confirm it with different color items.
You guyz check it aswell.
I hope mate 40 doest have the same problem. Quite disappointing bug considering the price of the phone and camera quality.
