Expert Mode

Expert mode allows you to take more professional photos under more precise settings.

Open "Camera", tap "MORE" at the bottom left corner and then choose "EXPERT".

The options that can be set manually include sensitivity (ISO), shutter speed (S), white balance (WB), focus (AF / MF), exposure compensation (EV), etc. Click on each option and slide the lower slider to the left or right. Adjust specific values. Click the button to switch the parameter value between automatic and manual.

Sensitivity adjustment: The lower the ISO, the smoother the photo will be. The higher the ISO, the louder the random background noise will become and the more distracting the quality will be.

Adjusting the shutter speed: The shutter speed determines how long the sensor is exposed to light. If you take a photo of a moving object, for example, a running child, then you need to increase the shutter speed.

White balance: White balance is closely relevant to color temperature. Under different lighting conditions, different color casts could be created. For example, it can be of the slight blue cast under the light source of fluorescent lamps and of the yellow cast under the light source of incandescent lamps. To present the realistic color cast, adjusting white balance could also lead to the change of color temperature to either cooler or warmer tones.

Focusing: Adjust focusing to make photos sharper. Choose to either focus on an object with a blurred background or focus on background with blurred objects.

Exposure compensation: Once exposure compensation is on, the camera will automatically come up with a suitable parameter for exposure compensation, making the photos brighter or dimmer.
