Hello!
I have a Samsung Galaxy J2 that I use to record videos for my YT channel. Because I read text from a teleprompter app (Selvi) I use the front camera in 99% of time. The problem is that mostly of times I like to record using broad day light coming from the window of my room but it causes the exposure keep changing along the video. It's very annoying.
I figured that the rear camera offers a way to 'lock' the exposure and therefore avoid it to keep changing. It can be achieved by taping and holding for a couple seconds the spot in the screen where there is the desirable exposure. After to 'lock' the exposure this way even releasing your finger from the screen you can move the camera around, turn lights on and off, etc, that the camera will NOT try to adjust the exposure. It's very handy.
Unfortunately this feature is present only in the rear camera, and since I have to use the front one because the teleprompter it ends being kind of useless for me.
Since as far as I know both cameras of J2 are identical (same characteristics, same resolution, etc) I can't see why they couldn't share the same features. I would like to know if there is some app or a hidden trick to allow this feature (lock exposure) on the front camera either.
Thanks!
