Camera gesture control help

When I first got the m8 I noticed that I can turn on camera from sleep mode with the volume in landscape. Problem is I did that but nothing. What am I doing wrong?

I found it to be finiky at best. Make sure you hold the phone completely horizontal and not on an angle. And then hold down the volume down button.

Only works for me when the volume buttons r facing the ground and not upwards

I always do it buttons facing up. It really does have to be completely horizontal. I just tried it at various angles and it didn't work.

Finally got it to work after pressing both up and down volume buttons with volume buttons are facing down
