========================================
I find it quite frustrating that the asus camera app keep trying to refocus when taking selfie videos. I shoot videos of myself playing guitar or singing and I've had to download google camera just for focus lock. Is there any way to lock focus and exposure when taking video on the stock camera app?

While you record, a single tap on the screen where you want to focus will lock the AF system and exposure.
The icon
AFwill be displayed in the top of the screen if you want to cancel.While you recoding a video Just a single tap on the screen will lock 🔐 the AF
To disable the Lock just press the
AFicon on the screenAFTo disable it Press
Long press on the thing you want to lock focus on
Thanks everyone! I guess i wasnt pressing long enough. it would be nice to see some visual feedback on the screen.. currently the icon under your finger turns green but that isnt very helpful. a message saying "af locked" before i click record would be nice.
In fact, there is a message "AF locked", but it appears 5 seconds once only.
The green circle and the
AFicon should guide you 👍
