Challenge the dark with Bphone B86, see what “computer photography” can do

As we all know, besides the extremely interesting and practical photographic modes such as professional sMacro close-up mode, moment freezing mode or product shooting mode, there is a shooting mode. Another extremely popular used by a lot of users: Night mode. This mode was dubbed sNight by BKAV, though not mentioned in the Bphone B86 launch event, but this is an extremely effective photography mode and it is a testament to the power of Electric Photography maths.

As can be seen in the two pictures above, in the relatively dark light, there is only a single street light illuminating the whole amusement park, photos taken with the automatic mode of Bphone B86 for photos not really good. , low brightness, poor details as well as a lot of ground, when switching to sNight night mode, Bphone B86 instantly turns the whole scene into “bright as day”, while retaining image quality very high.

According to BKAV, the sNight mode on Bphone B86 does not use long-term exposure to capture more light. In essence in this mode, Bphone B86’s camera will take many photos with shutter speed sufficient to capture a certain amount of light, then use the technology “computational photography”, analysis and calculation based on the recorded information to produce the final image of the highest quality. This mode is similar to Google’s Night Sight shooting mode on Pixel devices.

In order to optimize the quality of photos taken in night mode, BKAV said it has integrated sCorrection technology to ensure the reproduction of colors that are truer than reality. Because in very low light conditions, color analysis, as well as white balance or even correct focus is a very difficult thing without technology like sCorrection. With this technology, the camera on Bphone B86 will make many measurements in many pictures taken to reduce the error in color measurement, thereby ensuring the integrity of the image.

One of the advantages of sNight mode as well as the use of computational photography to handle it is to reduce the noise of the resulting image. If in automatic shooting mode, the camera of the machine must increase the ISO greatly, increase the exposure time, and then have to eliminate noise, resulting in the final image becomes less detailed and too much blurry, then with sNight mode, taking advantage of the power of computational photography, the camera on Bphone B86 can produce underexposed photos with the least amount of noise, while retaining very high detail.

Try cropping the photos taken in sNight mode on Bphone B86, the details of the photos are extremely good, less noise, not too much noise and ensure color fidelity.

Of course, to be able to take full advantage of the effects of the sNight mode on Bphone B86, users will need to use accessories that support the device such as a tripod to avoid blur or image shakes. . The camera of Bphone B86 also has the ability to automatically detect whether or not it has been fixed, thereby extending the time to shoot sNight to continue improving the best image quality.

Using sNight mode requires users to fix Bphone B86 on a tripod

It can be seen with the complex computing technologies that BKAV has integrated on its new Bphone line, users can fully capture not only good quality images in bright enough conditions, but also can produce extremely impressive night photography. “Turning night into day” is no longer an “impossible task” for Bphone devices!
