Given that the current menu structure is not contextual, are users confused that certain settings only apply in certain contexts? The big one is HDR - how do we convey to the user that HDR, though on, doesn't take affect in video mode or while using the front facing camera. Case 1: HDR is on, the user toggles to front camera or video mode. Case 2: HDR is off, user toggles to front camera or video mode. They go to menu to turn HDR on. We can handle this like the HDR/Flash dependency, auto toggle off and use the confirmation text to inform the user. We can disable or remove menu items. UX to explore.
