Here are some of the tips shared by our Samsung Members for low-light photography:

Keep a Steady Base

While shooting in a low-light situation, the shutter speed slows down to allow light to pass through the aperture for a longer duration. Movements or shaky hands can result in a blurry image. “Try keeping your phone on a stable surface or use a tripod to eliminate blur in your images,” says Dr Pai.

Use Night Mode

The Night Mode on Galaxy smartphones help improve the overall image quality by calibrating shadows and highlights and by reducing noise. “Night mode helps in bringing out the colours and details in my photos when the light is dim. Some of my best shots have been with this mode,” said Akath Dua.

In the pro mode in the camera app, users can tweak the settings as per their preference. Shutter speed, aperture, ISO can all be adjusted to best suit the photographer, which gives greater control to the user. According to Samsung Member Jasleen Singh – also known as Mr Geek – Galaxy smartphones have the best image sensors for fantastic shots.
