Why is video recording on Instagram blurred even though the camera function is working properly?

Our daughter got a new Huawei P30 for Christmas. The camera function works perfectly, both photos and videos. Now she wanted to post a video recording on Instagram. First, does the device focus and when moving away from the object, the image becomes blurred? How can lying down?

That has something to do with optics.

A camera has to focus at a certain distance so that the image is sharp.

If you change the distance, it becomes blurred, unless the focus is automatically adjusted.

Maybe it doesn't focus right / the wrong things in the background.

For a sharp video, the focus has to adjust automatically, right? Does it have to stop this somewhere? This was automatically the case with the old cell phone.

Mmm… We have to see. What amazes me is that the cell phone makes very sharp videos and that only doesn't work on Instagram.

Do you make the video yourself and then upload it there, or is there an Instagram app that makes videos?

In the first case it could also be that the video is subsequently compressed with a loss of quality.

I myself am a layman and have no real idea.

Our daughter makes the video directly from the Instagram platform and wants to upload it from there. Somehow the camera doesn't seem to be working properly there. Unfortunately, we couldn't google the problem online either.
