10:

• The device of claim 1, wherein, based on the determination that there is image content at different depths in the first region, outputting the alternative version of the image content in the first region comprises outputting, in response to a condition being satisfied that there is image content at different depths in the first region, the alternative version of the image content in the first region.

11:

• The device of claim 1, wherein outputting the alternative version of the image content in the first region comprises blurring portions of the first region that are not in focus.

12:

• The device of claim 1, wherein the device is configured to capture an image at the first focus level of the camera.

13:

• The device of claim 1, wherein determining whether there is image content at different depths in the first region comprises determining whether there is image content at different depths based on one or more of a phase detection auto focus (PDAF) based depth map, a defocus map, or time of flight (ToF).

15:

• The method of claim 14, wherein outputting the alternative version of the image content in the first region comprises outputting a zoomed in version of the image content in the first region.

16:

• The method of claim 14, wherein controlling the first focus level for the camera comprises controlling a depth of focus for the camera.

17:

• The method of claim 14,
• wherein receiving the subsequent user selection comprises receiving the subsequent user selection within the alternative version of the image content in the first region that selects a sub-region within the first region, and
• wherein controlling the first focus level comprises controlling the first focus level based on the subsequent user selection of the sub-region.

18:

• The method of claim 17, wherein the subsequent user selection within the alternative version of the image content in the first region that selects the sub-region within the first region comprises a touch user selection that selects the sub-region within the first region.

19:

• The method of claim 14,
• wherein receiving the subsequent user selection comprises receiving the subsequent user selection within the alternative version of the image content in the first region to manually control the first focus level, and
• wherein controlling the first focus level comprises controlling the first focus level based on the manual controlling of the first focus level by a user.

20:

• The method of claim 19, further comprising outputting a histogram illustrating an amount of the image content that is closer to and an another amount of the image content that is further away from a focal point during the subsequent user selection.

21:

• The method of claim 19, wherein the subsequent user selection within the alternative version of the image content to manually control the first focus level comprises a swipe, slide, or drag and hold user selection to manually adjust a depth of focus.

23:

• The method of claim 14, wherein, based on the determination that there is image content at different depths in the first region, outputting the alternative version of the image content in the first region comprises outputting, in response to a condition being satisfied that there is image content at different depths in the first region, the alternative version of the image content in the first region.

24:

• The method of claim 14, outputting the alternative version of the image content in the first region comprises blurring portions of the first region that are not in focus.

25:

• The method of claim 14, further comprising capturing an image at the first focus level of the camera.

26:

• The method of claim 14, determining that there is image content at different depths in the first region comprises determining whether there is image content at different depths based on one or more of a phase detection auto focus (PDAF) based depth map, a defocus map, or time of flight (ToF).

28:

• The computer-readable storage medium of claim 27, wherein the instructions that cause the one or more processors to control the first focus level for the camera comprise instructions that cause the one or more processors to control a depth of focus for the camera.
