Abstract
A panoramic photo shooting method and apparatus related to the field of communications technologies include detecting, by a terminal, an input operation used to turn on a camera, turning on, by the terminal, the camera in response to the input operation, displaying, by the terminal, a preview picture obtained by the camera, and displaying, by the terminal in the preview picture, a prompt for entering a panoramic photo shooting mode.
Claims20
A panoramic photo shooting method implemented by a terminal, comprising:
- detecting an input operation to turn on a camera;
- turning on the camera in response to the input operation;
- displaying a first preview picture received from the camera;
- determining based on the first preview picture whether to switch the camera to a panoramic photo shooting mode;
- upon determining to switch the camera to the panoramic photo shooting mode, displaying, in the first preview picture, a prompt for entering the panoramic photo shooting mode, wherein the prompt recommends the panoramic photo shooting mode to a user, and wherein the prompt comprises a shortcut for entering the panoramic photo shooting mode;
- detecting a second input operation to enter the panoramic photo shooting mode;
- and
- displaying, in response to the second input operation, a second preview picture in the panoramic photo shooting mode.
A terminal, comprising:
- a display;
- a camera;
- and
- a processor coupled to the display and the camera and configured to:
- detect an input operation to turn on the camera;
- turn on the camera in response to the input operation;
- display, on the display, a first preview picture received from the camera;
- determine based on the first preview picture whether to switch the camera to a panoramic photo shooting mode;
- upon determining to switch the camera to the panoramic photo shooting mode, display, in the first preview picture, a prompt for entering the panoramic photo shooting mode, wherein the prompt recommends the panoramic photo shooting mode to a user, and wherein the prompt comprises a shortcut for entering the panoramic photo shooting mode;
- detect a second input operation to enter the panoramic photo shooting mode;
- and
- display, in response to the second input operation, a second preview picture in the panoramic photo shooting mode on the display.
A computer program product comprising computer-executable instructions for storage on a non-transitory computer-readable medium that, when executed by a processor, cause a terminal to:
- detect an input operation to turn on a camera;
- turn on the camera in response to the input operation;
- display a first preview picture received from the camera;
- determine based on the first preview picture whether to switch the camera to a panoramic photo shooting mode;
- upon determining to switch the camera to the panoramic photo shooting mode, display, in the first preview picture, a prompt for entering the panoramic photo shooting mode, wherein the prompt recommends the panoramic photo shooting mode to a user, and wherein the prompt comprises a shortcut for entering the panoramic photo shooting mode;
- detect a second input operation to enter the panoramic photo shooting mode;
- and
- display, in response to the second input operation, a second preview picture in the panoramic photo shooting mode.
