[Q] Front Camera appears cropped when wanting to take a picture - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
On my G4 the front camera looks like it has become cropped and doesn't fit the whole screen, see attached image. I have tried restarting the phone.
Any ideas why this has happened, if I use the main camera it is fine and if I use dual mode it is also fine, it wasn't always like this, i have changed the ratio settings and that doesn't do anything.
Anyone else had this?

You have the flash mode on. Turn off the flash icon and it will go back to normal.

Ah, so the "flash" mode on the front camera is actually using the whiteness of the screen itself for illuminating your face as it faces the white screen? Clever...

Ahhaaaaa thank you was driving me crazy!

FYI it does this too if you lowered the screen DPI. The rear camera is fullscreen but the front camera is letterboxed.

[Q] Front camera settings is an enigma

Not a disaster but really got me curious.
I looked everywhere. There is always a user guide for the rear camera, never for the front as far as I could find. I just want to know what is that first option in the front camera settings. What does it do? (icon of hand holding phone and an arrow)?
Take a picture with front facing camera, then bring the phone down and it will automatically show the preview of the pic you took, that's If you have it "ON".
On the other hand, if its " OFF", there is no automatic preview.
Hope it helps =)

Front camera doesn't work.

Hello,
After launching the camera application, when I select the front camera, the app shows a black screen for a few seconds, then crashes back to home screen with no error message.
The rear camera and everything else work fine.
I replaced the front camera or/and the daughter board the symptom is the same no front camera works.
I need help please.
Best regards.
I have the opposite problem. After removing my daughter board, the camera app just exited. After replacing my rear camera, only the front facing seems to be working (and no flash)

Does the Pixel 3 have an automatic beauty setting, and if so, can I turn it off?

I have noticed that when I take a selfie, and then click on it to view it, it displays normally for a second, but then auto-blurs the selfie. I don't actually like that- I'd rather see the real image, not a beauty-filtered one. How can I turn off whatever mechanism is doing this?
Are you talking about the blur/bokeh in portrait mode or face retouching? Portrait mode will blue the background while keeping the subject in focus. There is also an icon on the top left corner of the camera that looks like a face with a star on it which adjusts face retouching. Options are off, natural or soft. This is on both camera and portrait mode.
Additionally for photos you've already taken in portrait, when viewing them in the camera roll there are two copies of the image and you can toggle the bokeh/blur on and off.
