Detailed Description
QCamera can be used within a QMediaCaptureSession for video recording and image taking.
You can use QCameraDevice to list available cameras and choose which one to use.
const QList<QCameraDevice> cameras = QMediaDevices::videoInputs(); for (const QCameraDevice &cameraDevice : cameras) { if (cameraDevice.description() == "mycamera") camera = new QCamera(cameraDevice); }
On hardware that supports it, QCamera lets you adjust the focus and zoom. This also includes functionality such as a "Macro" mode for close up work (e.g. reading barcodes, or recognizing letters), or "touch to focus" - indicating an interesting area of the image for the hardware to attempt to focus on.
camera->setFocusPointMode(QCamera::FocusModeManual); camera->setCustomFocusPoint(QPointF(0.25f, 0.75f)); // A point near the bottom left, 25% away from the corner, near that shiny vase
The minimumZoomFactor() and maximumZoomFactor() methods provide the range of supported zoom factors. The zoomTo() method allows changing the zoom factor.
camera->setZoomFactor(3.0);
After capturing the raw data for a camera frame, the camera hardware and software performs various image processing tasks to produce the final image. This includes compensating for ambient light color, reducing noise, as well as making some other adjustments to the image.
You can control many of these processing steps through the Camera properties. For example, you can set the white balance (or color temperature) used for processing images:
camera->setWhiteBalanceMode(QCamera::WhiteBalanceFluorescent);
For more information on image processing of camera frames, see Camera Image Processing.
See the camera overview for more information.

The custom focus point property is used only in FocusPointCustom focus mode.
You can check whether custom focus points are supported by querying supportedFeatures() with the Feature.CustomFocusPoint flag.

Note: This function can be invoked via the meta-object system and from QML. See Q_INVOKABLE.
Notifier signal:
| void | flashReady(bool ready) |
focusDistance : float
This property defines the lens focus distance when the camera device works in manual focus mode. Valid values range from 0 to 1, where 0 is the closest possible focus distance, and 1 is the farthest. The farthest point is typically at infinity, but this may not be the case for all devices.
This property is applied to the device only when focusMode is set to FocusModeManual, and supportedFeatures includes the Feature::FocusDistance flag.
If you assign a value to this property while focusMode is not set to Camera.FocusModeManual, the property stores the value but does not affect the device until Camera.FocusModeManual is active.
Assigning a value outside the valid range [0, 1] has no effect on this property.
If supportedFeatures does not include the FocusDistance flag, any attempt to set this property is ignored.
This property will not be updated by the camera when it is in an automatic focus mode.
The default value is 1.
Access functions:
| float | focusDistance() const |
| void | setFocusDistance(float d) |
Notifier signal:
| void | focusDistanceChanged(float) |
focusMode : FocusMode
This property holds the current camera focus mode.
This property holds the value that controls focus mode for the camera device. In all autofocus modes, the camera device keeps focusing continuously.
To check whether the camera device supports a particular focus mode, pass the corresponding FocusMode value to the isFocusModeSupported function as a parameter. The function returns false if the focus mode value is not supported. Assigning this mode to the focusMode property has no effect.
If you set the focusMode property to Camera.FocusModeManual, the lens locks to the focus according to focusDistance.
Access functions:

| void | setManualExposureTime(float seconds) |
Notifier signal:
| void | manualExposureTimeChanged(float speed) |

void QCamera::setCameraDevice(const QCameraDevice &cameraDevice)
Connects the camera object to the physical camera device described by cameraDevice. Using a default constructed QCameraDevice object as cameraDevice will connect the camera to the system default camera device.
When switching camera devices, the QCamera's capabilities are updated. Additionally, the QCamera's control properties (such as focusMode, flashMode, focusDistance, zoomFactor) are updated as follows:
- If a property is supported on the new device, the property value is applied to the camera device.
- If a property is supported but its range of valid values was changed, the property is clamped to the new range and applied to the camera device.
- If the new camera device does not support a property, the property value is reset to default, and no changes are made to the camera device.
Note: Setter function for property cameraDevice.
See also cameraDevice().
void QCamera::setCameraFormat(const QCameraFormat &format)
Tells the camera to use the format described by format. This can be used to define a specific resolution and frame rate to be used for recording and image capture.
Note: When using the FFMPEG backend on an Android target device if you request YUV420P format, you will receive either a fully planar 4:2:0 YUV420P or a semi-planar NV12/NV21. This depends on the codec implemented by the device OEM.
Note: Setter function for property cameraFormat.
See also cameraFormat().

Sets manual white balance to colorTemperature. This is used when whiteBalanceMode() is set to WhiteBalanceManual. The units are Kelvin.
Setting a color temperature will only have an effect if WhiteBalanceManual is supported. In this case, setting a temperature greater 0 will automatically set the white balance mode to WhiteBalanceManual. Setting the temperature to 0 will reset the white balance mode to WhiteBalanceAuto.
Note: Setter function for property colorTemperature.
See also colorTemperature().

Sets the white balance to mode.
Note: Setter function for property whiteBalanceMode.

Same as setActive(true).
If the camera can't be started for some reason, the errorOccurred() signal is emitted.
[slot] void QCamera::stop()
Stops the camera. Same as setActive(false).
[slot] void QCamera::zoomTo(float factor, float rate)
Zooms to a zoom factor factor using rate.
The rate is specified in powers of two per second. At a rate of 1 it would take 2 seconds to go from a zoom factor of 1 to 4.
Note: Using a specific rate is not supported on all cameras. If not supported, zooming will happen as fast as possible.
