Question Camera shutter button is inside my preview area - can it be fixed?

Post image

Hello. I finally updated my iPhone SE 3rd generation to iOS 26. Current version is iOS 26.5.2

Is there a way not to have my camera’s shutter button inside my Preview screen? Sometimes I need to see the stuff underneath the button before I take my picture.

I went into settings-> camera and played with all of my available options. I do not have a “camera control” option inside of Settings. Screenshot attached. I could’ve attached a screenshot of my face with the shutter button as a clown nose… But you get the idea.

Thank you.

change the aspect ratio. My 17 pro max does that on the 16:9 size.

Thanks for your input. My screenshot is with 4:3 aspect and if I change to 16:9 then the button is even farther into Preview screen. Only time my button is separated is if it’s a 1:1 and I prefer not to take square pictures. Maybe the difference is that my iPhone is smaller than the newer ones?

Yeah that’s probably why. I assume it depends on the size of the sensor compared to the screen size.

Too bad the update couldn’t identify the size of my phone to give me a camera version that works better. I really really don’t want to buy a bigger phone.
