Camera window size when on 4:3

[666cowboy]

Done a bunch of googling, but can find nothing. Is there a way to have the full 5.7 active when taking a front facing photo? Currently it's just a square in the center of the screen, doesn't use the full screen when taking a picture, like the selfie does. I find it annoying.

If you make it full screen your fingers probably will mess with the tap to focus function. My phone also does it, I found it's very convenient to have some places on the screen to hold my phone while taking photos.

This is how my LG looks in camera mode with Marshmallow.

the reason you see that view is BECAUSE it is in 4.3 mode. and the screen is more 16:9.

so it's highlighting to you the area you will get and how it will look for accurate composing of the picture. Otherwise the view on screen would have to be distorted to fill the space - might not look right.

meanwhile I admit I shoot most of my stuff in 16:9 12mp mode. I have little reason to use the extra space - and all my screens are widescreen
