Abstract

Preview images and alternate enlarged facial preview images may be displayed in a camera display screen or viewfinder prior to shooting a picture. When an image captured by a camera during a first time duration includes a human face, a face from an image captured by the camera during a second time duration may be enlarged and displayed as an alternate preview image in the viewfinder. An instruction to shoot an image may be received and the camera may shoot or save an image captured by the camera according to the shooting instruction. The alternate preview image including the facial enlargement may be used in conjunction with use of a selfie stick to aid users looking at a distant viewfinder at the end of the selfie stick.
