With 4 totally different lenses to select from, as we would count on, you will get probably the most beneficial outcomes when utilizing the usual lens / major sensor. That stated, the ultra-wide-angle lens places in an excellent efficiency and comes into its personal when recording panorama scenes and the like.
On the subject of the 3x and 10x lenses, these are fairly good, however carry out greatest in good mild – significantly the 10x, which has a reasonably slim f/4.9 aperture.
The area zooms of 30x and 100x are actually not advisable except you are significantly determined to get nearer to a topic – significantly from the 100x setting, we see the outcomes are very smoothed and are not more likely to be helpful for a lot of eventualities.
Samsung’s Portrait mode places in a superb efficiency, particularly so when the topics have a easy or primary define. You would possibly discover that with high quality particulars similar to hair or fur, the delineation between the topic and the background is a bit bit messy, nevertheless it’s solely actually apparent if you happen to zoom in and study such drop-offs.
Evening mode works very nicely, producing significantly good lengthy publicity pictures, particularly once more when capturing with the primary lens.
