Camera

Surface has two cameras. You can use the front-facing camera to have a video chat with a friend, and the rear-

facing camera to record meetings and events. When Surface is positioned on a desk using the first Kickstand

position (the more upright position), the rear-facing camera points straight ahead.

Record video in 1080p HD, with a 16:9 aspect ratio (widescreen) with either camera.

Take photos with either camera, too. The front-facing camera is 3.5 megapixels and the rear-facing camera is 5.0

megapixels.

Both cameras are fixed focus, so you don’t need to worry about focusing. A privacy light appears when either

camera is on, so there are no surprises.

Record videos and take photos

The Camera app is pre-installed on Surface or you can use a Camera app from the

Windows Store (search for Camera in the Store app). The following content is for the

Camera app.

To take a photo or record a video:

 Open the Camera app, and then tap the on-screen Camera button or Video

camera button .
