Windows 11 Beta Update Brings New Camera Features and Multitasking Support
Windows 11 is stepping up its game with enhanced camera features, now available to beta testers in the Dev Channel. As outlined by Windows Latest, the latest update introduces options to fine-tune brightness and contrast settings, letting users customize the visual output to match their preferences. Moreover, you can now tweak camera resolution and frame rate, ideal for achieving specific requirements during video calls or recordings.
One of the most exciting additions is support for simultaneous camera access by multiple applications. This long-awaited feature allows seamless switching and parallel use of camera-enabled apps, significantly enhancing multitasking capabilities for professionals and casual users alike.
That said, these features won’t work universally; availability depends on your camera model’s compatibility. Beta testers can experience the changes now by downloading build 26120.2702. To access it, navigate to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Insider Program, and select the Dev Channel to get started.
This update reflects Microsoft’s focus on integrating practical features into Windows 11, making it a more versatile and powerful operating system for modern workflows.
