How to take pictures with two cameras at the same time on the Galaxy S8

The Galaxy S8 has one of the best cameras on the market today, both because of the quality of the photographic sensor and the number of functions available. One of the capture modes, for example, uses the rear and front cameras of the device at the same time. The feature is interesting because it allows you to take pictures of landscapes and then include the user in the picture by means of a selfie.

The feature is called "Dual Camera" and is hidden in the settings of the Samsung mobile photo app like the Galaxy S7 and the latest S8 and S8 Plus. Here's how to use it.
