You can adjust all image-related settings in the Mevo app via a quick-access menu that displays real-time changes to your video feed.
Access the Image Settings Menu
In the Live Edit view, tap the Options (•••) icon in the lower-right corner. Then tap the image adjustments icon (third from the left).
The Image Settings menu will open in the lower third of the screen. The bottom row includes preset filters, and the top row contains manual image settings. Swipe left in each row to reveal additional options.
Camera Modes and What They Mean
There are three camera operation modes that determine how exposure, shutter speed, and ISO are controlled.
Auto
In Auto mode, Mevo automatically adjusts both shutter speed and ISO to match your lighting conditions. This is ideal for users who want to quickly set up without adjusting multiple settings manually. Exposure and other settings can still be adjusted.
Shutter
In Shutter mode, you can manually set the shutter speed while Mevo automatically adjusts ISO for proper exposure. This is best for fast or slow action where motion smoothness is a priority.
Manual
Manual mode gives you full control of shutter speed and ISO. Exposure is calculated automatically based on your inputs. This mode is ideal for consistent lighting or creative control over your scene.
Image Adjustment Settings
Exposure
Adjust exposure to compensate for high-contrast scenes like stage lighting. Available in Auto and Shutter modes. Changing this value adjusts shutter speed and ISO automatically.
Shutter Speed
Controls how long the camera’s sensor is exposed to light per frame. Slower speeds create motion blur; faster speeds freeze motion. Available in Shutter and Manual modes.
ISO
Controls the sensor's light sensitivity. Higher ISO brightens dark scenes but may introduce grain. Only adjustable in Manual mode.
White Balance
Adjust color tone to compensate for lighting. Tap the setting to choose from preset lighting conditions. The image adjusts after about one second.
Brightness, Contrast, Saturation
These affect how vibrant, sharp, or flat your image appears. Tap any setting and scroll up/down to see changes in real-time.

Metering & Exposure Metering
Choose how light is measured across the scene:
- Wide: Measures the entire frame.
- Crop: Measures the cropped portion of your shot.
Spot, Center, and Average settings define the focal point within the selected metering mode.
Flip Video
Flip your video vertically:
- Off: Image stays upright regardless of orientation.
- On: Image flips vertically no matter the orientation.
- Auto: Automatically flips based on camera position.
A visual notification appears when changing settings.
Electronic Image Stabilization
EIS helps when filming while moving. Turning this on disables Mevo’s Live Editing features (zoom, cut, etc.).
Anti-Flicker
Useful for shooting under fluorescent lighting or screens. Reduces flickering caused by power frequency.
