How to get the best shot
The Camera app automatically captures several images right before and after you take a photo. This way if you
miss a moment, you can look through the images to find the photo you want. Here’s how:
1. After you take a photo, tap the image in the lower-left corner (see picture).
2. Turn the dial to review the images.
3. When looking at the one you want to save, tap or click the Save button in the dial.
Take photos from the lock screen
You can quickly take a photo or video from the lock screen. Here’s how:
1. If the screen is off, tap a key or turn Surface on.
2. Swipe down from the top edge of the lock screen.
3. Tap the Photo button or anywhere on the screen.
4. To see your camera roll or change settings, tap or click the Unlock button, sign in to your Surface, and
open the Camera app.
To turn the lock screen camera on or off: Open the Settings charm, tap Change PC settings > PC and devices >
Lock screen > Swipe down on the lock screen to use the camera (under Camera at the bottom of the screen).
