Portrait shooting

The first contender for a medal and user preference is a smartphone from Samsung called Gelexi C plus. This device is equipped with a 12 megapixel rear camera and an 8 megapixel front-facing camera, as well as automatic focus and stabilization. It has the ability to change the aperture for shooting in the dark and daytime, landscape and portrait photos, etc.

Next in line is the Huawei P20 PRO camera. Thanks to the built-in artificial intelligence, it recognizes the image and changes the color rendering depending on the objects caught in the field of view of the lens. As regards portrait shots, a monochrome sensor is provided here. The device provides a “blur” of the background, thereby making the main emphasis on the face. This is called the “Bokeh Effect” and looks really extraordinary. And to make it more convenient to test the capabilities of the device, it is better to immediately get a monopod for a selfie.

For such photos, the Samsung Galaxy S9 has a double aperture (F / 1.5 and F / 2.4). For poor visibility conditions (rain, cloudy weather) the module has a special noise reduction. Thanks to him, the photos will remain clear even without additional settings.

The mix of artificial intelligence and three modules for shooting the Huawei P20 PRO makes perfectly clear photos both in sunny weather and on cloudy days. Modules transmit information as detailed as possible, while maintaining shadows and natural color reproduction. The camera has automatic scene recognition, independently switching between modes.

As for the Apple iPhone X, its camera shoots equally well in any light. All details of the pictures are clearly outlined, contrasting tones. If necessary, you can use the flash or allow the phone to choose the depth of the desired backlight.

If you want to capture interesting shots on the Huawei P20 PRO in the dark, the special “Night” mode is selected. When it is activated, the shooting time will be needed a little more than in the usual format, but the photos will be at the highest level: without highlighting individual places, blur, fuzzy transfer of details. It is advisable that during shooting the hand with the smartphone does not tremble.

Now about Huawei PRO. When recording in FullHD 60 fps format, the camera does not provide stabilization, that is, the pictures are less clear than we would like. Otherwise, there are no complaints about the. The sound here is clear, the colors are contrasted as much as possible, the harmony of light and dark is pleasing to the eye. The “Slow Motion” function is also present here.
