At a time when staying connected to family and friends is more important than ever, Canadians need devices they can count on for capturing and sharing every moment, whether you are documenting your at-home activities, posting a viral dance online, or taking a workout selfie.

With the Samsung Galaxy S21 5G and Galaxy S21+ 5G, video diaries or conference calls are crisp even in dull lighting, your spring garden plants and flowers are rendered in stunning quality, and your optimistically-planned outdoor summer adventures are waiting to be captured in high resolution.

The Galaxy S21 5G and Galaxy S21 + 5G are game changers, packed with epic camera features like Single Take and 8K Video Snap that make it easy to capture the magic of your everyday memories. We’ve all been there, anxiously trying to decide whether to take a photo or video for that special moment. With Single Take, you can take the guesswork out of which shooting mode to choose from and capture a variety of content options with just one click.[1] The camera captures a slew of different media in up to 15 seconds, including filter-enhanced photos, GIFs, and videos so that you can choose and share your favourites with friends, family and followers!

Ever take an awesome video and wish you could pull a still image straight from it? It’s never fun to scrub through that super cool video and have to settle for a blurry screenshot. Well, with 8K Video Snap, you can take crisp images out of high-resolution videos to memorialize moments in photo form to hang on your gallery wall, set your lock screen or put on your WFH desk.

Over the last 13 months, more Canadians have explored their creativity through video and photography, including daily vlogging of everyday moments, cooking videos or even short films. Harnessing your inner content creator is easier than ever with Director’s View and Vlogger’s View on the Galaxy S21 and S21+ 5G. Don’t let their names fool you – these unique features are designed for any and all aspiring creators, and let you switch the camera angles in real time. You can record the front and rear cameras simultaneously and edit seamlessly right from the device –  this way you can be the director, producer and the star all at once!

Our smartphones are tools that help us capture and share our world, and while that might feature a whole lot of sourdough attempts and mask selfies for the moment, our need to stay connected isn’t going anywhere – and as we get back to experiencing the things we love, we’ll want to make sure every moment is preserved in high-res.

Looking to flex your skills and up your content game? Or maybe you’re a content creator and feeling stuck in a creative rut? Here are a few tips and tricks on how you can make every moment a memory worth sharing with the powerful Galaxy S21 5G and Galaxy S21+ 5G.

Choose candid over posed

The perfect photo moment can pass by in a blink of an eye. With 8K Video, you can capture the entire moment in stunning quality and turn your best candid moments into high-res stills with 8K Video Snap, so you can say goodbye to stuffy, posed photos.

Be adventurous

Don’t be afraid to try out the different lenses and camera angles because you’ll be surprised how your photos will turn out when you change your perspective. Bend down, lay on the ground, or even flip your phone upside down with the Ultra-Wide lens, it will give you a vertically stretched effect and you can capture it all without feeling cramped.

Take photos in bursts

Single Take takes the guesswork out of the equation when you’re trying to decide between filters, photo or video. Take a series of epic photos and videos over 15 seconds with just a single press of the button[2] and from there, take your pick to find your favourite.

Use grid mode

Lining up the shot to help avoid lopsided photos is easy with grid mode, which displays the field with a grid overlay so you can follow the rule of thirds.

Don’t over-edit

Taking the perfect shot takes time, why waste more on editing? Thanks to improved AI technology, Portrait mode on Samsung Galaxy S21 and S21+ 5G phones provides new natural lighting and background effects so you can take creative share-worthy portraits photos like a pro.
