Q: While using the OnePlus 8T's primary camera, focusing with close range is difficult.
A: When shooting at close range, the light or the texture of the object might affect the autofocus algorithm, making it impossible to find the focus point stably. If you need to focus at close range, you can use manual focus in professional mode or turn on Super macro to shoot. If you still face problems focusing at close range, please go to the community feedback area to submit feedback and provide the original film for reference.
