Capturing images in low light is not easy. Here are the factors that can improve your low light photography.
Aperture length (f-number)
is the opening in the lens that controls the amount of light captured. The lower the number the wider the aperture, meaning clearer low light shots.
ISO
is the sensor’s sensitivity to light. Turn the ISO up for better clarity in the dark.
Shutter speed
This refers to how long the shutters opens and captures light. The longer it is opened the brighter the shot.
BACKGROUND BLUR
Creating a background blur can lead to many stunning effects that highlight the focus point of the image.
Number of camera lenses
With two cameras, a primary camera captures the image while the secondary adds clarity and records depth information, allowing for a background blur effect, better zoom capability and more.
Focus
This is the part of the image that is the sharpest in comparison with the entire scene.
Selfie Focus
A camera feature available on the Galaxy J7+, J7 Pro and J5 Pro front camera allowing you to blur the background and put the focus on your face when taking selfies.
Live Focus
A camera feature that makes it easy to take background blur photography. On the Galaxy J7+ you can even edit the point of focus after taking the photo.
Megapixel count
Image sensors that are divided into numerous tiny pixels. More pixels mean a higher resolution photo. Beyond a certain threshold, the advantage of more megapixels becomes less significant.
Dynamic range
Represents a range of colours a camera can capture without losing details such as photos that are taking in overly lit or low light conditions.
IMAGE RESOLUTION
A sharp and well defined picture tells a more compelling story.
Focal length
How much you can see from a fixed point. Short focal length = wide angle. Long focal length = narrow angle.
High quality video
Resolution and Frames Per Second (FPS) determine the quality of video recordings. Phone cameras today can shoot HD videos (1080P).
