You can use the Face in mode to turn on the front and main cameras at the same time,
so you can take a photo of yourself together with the subject.
Multi-Camera Mode
Multi-Camera mode lets you take a photo that combines images from two different
angles and devices. You see two images in your device's camera viewfinder—one from
your own camera and one from a connected Xperia™ device or a Sony camera that
supports NFC and Wi-Fi direct technology. You can then edit what you see in the
viewfinder before taking a photo.
So if you’re at a concert venue, for example, and you want to capture a photo that
combines a view of the band from one angle and the audience from another, you can
use Multi-Camera mode for the best effect.
You can set up Multi-Camera mode using NFC, which launches the pairing of the two
devices using Wi-Fi direct technology. Both devices must support NFC.
Multi-Camera mode is not available in all markets.

of the connected device.
7 To edit the images in your viewfinder, tap
