Fairy Fight Series: Who has better video anti-shake effect, vivo or OPPO?

The progress of science and technology has promoted the change of lifestyle. With the rise of short video platform and the upgrade of mobile phone camera module, people's sharing in social software is no longer limited to words and pictures, and Vlog has become a new way for the younger generation to create and share.

However, recording video is much more difficult than taking pictures. After all, the process of shooting a video and the final output are a dynamic display. Due to some force majeure factors in actual shooting, there will be some jitter when holding the machine, but if the output picture is also very jitter, the Vlog effect will not be very good. So now mobile phone manufacturers will do some anti-shake measures for video shooting for their products more or less.

For example, the "blue-green" brothers OPPO and vivo have long observed the consumer's demand for video shooting and started to study video anti-shake. The anti-shake technology has been innovated for several generations, and the market feedback is very good. The object of our comparative evaluation today is their newly released new machines-OPPO Reno 5 Pro+and vivo X60 Pro.

OPPO Reno5 Pro+ has adopted a newly upgraded video Super Anti-shake 3.0 in anti-shake. This technology adds scene judgment and motion trend judgment algorithms. By monitoring the data of mobile phone gyroscope, accelerometer and sensor in real time, we can predict the user's trajectory, posture and exposure when shooting, and then match different anti-shake strategies to achieve a more refined and all-weather anti-shake effect.

Vivo X60 Pro is the second generation micro-pan/tilt mobile phone of vivo. VIS (Vibro-rational Anti-shake) technology adopted by the previous generation products is adopted, and X/Y/YAW/PITCH/ROLL "five-axis video anti-shake" is realized through the micro-pan/tilt of "X axis rotation +Y axis rotation" and the electronic anti-shake of "X axis translation +Y axis rotation".

The above two paragraphs only briefly describe the anti-shake technology of the two mobile phones, and the specific anti-shake effect still depends on the actual test.

The test was taken by the tester by hand, which conforms to the usage scenario. In order to ensure the fairness of the test as much as possible, the two mobile phones are side by side and always on the same plane, so even if the jitter is caused by human factors, the amplitude of the jitter is roughly the same.

(vivo X60 Pro anti-shake setting option)

The video shooting interface of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ has two anti-shake options, one is "Super Anti-shake" and the other is "Super Anti-shake Pro"; The video capture interface of vivo X60 Pro also has two anti-shake options, one is "standard anti-shake" and the other is "super anti-shake".

The naming of options is just a verbal game. It can be roughly understood that both mobile phones have two anti-shake modes, one is ordinary and the other is relatively powerful. So the test we do in each scene will be divided into two rounds. One round is to compare the super anti-shake mode of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ with the standard anti-shake mode of vivo X60 Pro, and the other round is to compare the super anti-shake mode of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ with the super anti-shake mode of vivo X60 Pro.

There is an option of "micro-pan/tilt calibration" in the setting options of vivo X60 Pro. Before the formal test, we calibrated the miniature pan/tilt of the machine. Both mobile phones have chosen the 4K 60 frame specification. Here are the specific test results.

Fixed lens position to shoot dynamic images

Moving the mirror in a fixed place and tracking the moving people or things is our common operation in shooting videos, so it became our first test project.

The mirror moves from near to far first. At this stage, the startup of vivo X60 Pro is unstable, which is more shaky than the output picture of OPPO Reno5 Pro+. The second stage of rearview mirror movement is lateral movement. At this stage, vivo X60 Pro is more stable, and the output picture of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ at this stage fluctuates more obviously.

After turning on the higher specification anti-shake settings, the anti-shake effect of the two mobile phones has obviously improved by one level. Even if the model moves in a trot, the output is still relatively stable. In contrast, OPPO Reno5 Pro+ is more stable when moving from near to far, and vivo X60 Pro is more stable when moving horizontally.

In addition, the "Super Anti-shake Pro" mode of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ sacrifices image quality for anti-shake effect. Compared with the "super anti-shake" mode of the machine, the picture will be slightly grainy; Vivo X60 Pro's "Super Anti-shake" mode, the picture quality has not obviously decreased by naked eyes, but the zoom factor has been adjusted to 2 times, and the framing range in the composition is small, which is also an opportunism to some extent.

Moving mirror to shoot dynamic images

When Running Man was first popular, the profession of VJ (visual jockey, translated as "image jockey") was also popular. The guest is playing a game. VJ runs with a camera and records a video while shooting. If you shoot this scene with a mobile phone, it will test the anti-shake ability of the equipment, so the second scene we test is to do a VJ.

In this scene, the output of the two mobile phones is more shaky than that of the first scene, but in contrast, the anti-shake effect of vivo X60 Pro is better, and the sense of up and down bumps is lighter.

OPPO Reno5 Pro+ has a very obvious picture quality degradation after turning on a higher standard anti-shake setting. If you only look at the output, the grass is like sand, and the anti-shake effect has not been particularly improved. Irregular fast motion really makes it difficult for the system to predict the movement trend. Vivo X60 Pro is visually more stable than the "standard mode" of the machine, but personally, it is an illusion of magnification, so that the picture can accommodate fewer scenes.

Moving the mirror to shoot fixed the picture.

Circular motion around a fixed point is a common shooting technique in our life, and this common scene was specially selected in the final round of testing.

From the previous tests, we found that this scene is not good for OPPO Reno5 Pro+ because there is a lot of lateral movement. From the actual comparison results, the screen of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ is also more wobbly.

After the anti-shake setting with higher specifications is turned on, the performance of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ is more stable, because the "Super Anti-shake Pro" of this machine is video Super Anti-shake 3.0 technology, and the scene judgment and motion trend judgment algorithms are added, and the circular motion is regular, so it is relatively easy to predict the trajectory; Vivo X60 Pro's "Super Anti-shake" is more about weakening the vision through the ingenious way of enlarging and cropping, but the effect of this scene is not obvious.

abstract

Through six comparative tests of three scenes, we found that the anti-shake effect of the two mobile phones is excellent, which belongs to the nature of tip-to-tip confrontation. There is no absolute winner in this comparison, but we draw the following conclusions through these six comparisons:

In the three scenes we chose, vivo X60 Pro has better overall stability, less bumps up and down, especially lateral movement, and the difference is very obvious.

When the mobile phone is transported from near to far, the output result of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ is more stable, and the processing of vivo X60 Pro is relatively rough.

When vivo X60 Pro is transported from near to far, there may be jitter at the initial stage. The enlightenment of vivo X60 Pro to users is that the initial speed of mirror transportation in this direction should be well controlled and not shaken.

The "Super Anti-shake Pro" mode of OPPO Reno5 Pro+ is really effective, provided that you exercise regularly, so the loss of image quality is not so serious.

Vivo X60 Pro's "Super Anti-shake" mode enlarges and narrows the framing range, which is opportunistic, but sometimes the effect is really good.
