Photographing method and electronic device with a virtual shutter button
This application provides a photographing method and an electronic device. In the photographing method, a virtual shutter button provided on a photographing preview interface can trigger a photographing or video recording function by when tapped by a user. The virtual shutter button has a same function as a shutter button of a camera application. When the user uses the photographing function of the electronic device, the virtual shutter button may move on the photographing preview interface based on a touch input of the user, thereby improving photographing experience of the user. In addition, the user may complete a photographing operation by touching and tapping the virtual shutter button, and therefore, shake caused by taking a photo by pressing a mechanical button (for example, a volume button) is avoided, and quality of a captured photo is ensured.
