Know the best woman's heart Sony selfie artifact bright card KW 1 evaluation

IT 168 evaluation selfie is not a new word, but it is undoubtedly a very popular word. Since Casio released the first generation of selfie artifacts, the selfie market has really opened. It only took three or four years to get a share in the women's market. There are many "selfie artifacts" on the market, but most of them are just under the guise of artifacts, and there is no breakthrough. Sony and KW 1 released in August last year are both eye-catching in appearance and style. As the pioneering work of the electronics giant, what kind of performance does this KW 1 have? Let's have a look.

Bright card KW1* * has four colors: white, pink, green and purple. Its modeling is inspired by the design of perfume bottles. The so-called fragrance of women is more popular with women. In the actual use process, the grip of KW 1 is still very good. Because the shutter can be triggered by the screen, it can maintain very high stability in dark places. Don't worry about the jitter caused by pressing the physical shutter. LED fill light can also supplement the light on people's faces.

In terms of functions, wifi and NFC control functions, which are very popular in micro-single, have been added, and the camera can be controlled remotely through smart mobile devices (smart phones and tablets), allowing users to take more creative selfies. In terms of beauty, KW 1 can set the beauty effect in advance before shooting, or take PS photos in the machine after shooting, saving the time for users to process photos on their computers or mobile phones. As a self-timer camera, the self-timer effect of KW 1 is also very good, and there is nothing to be picky about browsing Weibo and friends circle on a mobile phone with at least 5 -5.5 inch screen.

Advantages:

1. The rotating lens is inlaid with Swarovski crystals, which is very tall in your hand.

This perfume bottle has a unique shape.

3. It is very convenient to select timed selfie and continuous shooting on the touch screen.

4. Rich beauty level

Insufficient:

1. There is no mirror.

2. The operation response is slightly slow.

3. The crystal bracket is not integrated with the fuselage and is easy to be lost.

At present, the price given by major e-commerce companies is 4,599 yuan for JD.COM Suning.cn Tmall. Compared with ordinary cameras, this price is not low, but the charm of the selfie artifact is irreplaceable by other cameras. Considering the highly personalized styling and powerful but undistorted beauty effect, this price is not too big an obstacle for female users.

Jingjing perfume bottle modeling

In terms of appearance, with Casio TR series, it is difficult for latecomers to maintain their unique industrial design style while conforming to ergonomic design. However, Miss Osaka, the designer of Sony Liangka, was inspired by the perfume bottle and simply made KW 1 into a perfume bottle, which would be more popular with female users.

In terms of pixels, KW 1 reaches 1920000, and the sensor is 1/2.3-inch CMOS, which is undoubtedly much better than the front camera of many mobile phones. Since the photos of selfie cameras are generally sent to Weibo and friends circle, there is no need to worry that the size can't meet the demand.

The surface of KW 1 adopts a more streamlined design, which looks very sleek and feels particularly good when taking a selfie with a camera. The surface of the fuselage is made of matte material, which is not easy to stick fingerprints and oil stains. But because the lens part is transparent plastic, it is easy to get fingerprints and oil stains, so it needs to be cleaned.

The lens part can rotate180, and can be used for self-timer and ordinary shooting. The lens is surrounded by two Swarovski crystals, and the bottom is made of gold-plated technology. The place with spotlight looks dazzling and very fashionable.

In addition to Swarovski crystals, there is an LED fill light at the lower left of the lens, which is convenient for filling a person's face in dark light or where the color temperature deviation is large.

Compared with ordinary cameras, the buttons on the fuselage are very simplified. There are only two buttons in the whole fuselage: the shutter button and the power button. Because you can take pictures by touching the screen when taking a selfie, the actual utilization rate of the shutter button is not high.

On the other side of KW 1 is the memory card slot. Before shooting, you need to buy a micro SD card or Sony M2 card as the storage medium. Although the fuselage comes with a certain amount of memory, the capacity is very small, and it will be full after a few shots.

Below are the MICRO USB interface and the bracket interface, and the charging indicator light is in the middle. It is worth mentioning that KW 1 can be charged with a charging treasure, just like a mobile phone.

The fly in the ointment is that the crystal bracket of KW 1 is separated from the fuselage, so the bracket needs to be tightened manually when it is used, and it is easy to be lost when it is disassembled and carried.

KW 1 getting started

KW 1 adopts 2 1mm super wide-angle lens. Anyone who knows photography knows that when shooting at close range, wide-angle lenses are prone to obvious perspective distortion, which makes people's faces look longer. However, the maximum aperture of KW 1 allows selfie takers to take clearer photos at night, and it is not easy to shake. Obviously, when designing the lens, we should also consider the occasions where users often appear.

There are natural reasons why artifacts can become artifacts. Even the camera in your hand feels cool. For female users, a silly and thick SLR usually makes them very tired, and too complicated functions will make users lose patience. Simple design, simple and rude operation, let female users get started quickly, which is also the difference between products aimed at the female market and other products.

Many people have different views on the effect of selfie cameras. Some people think that dermabrasion is fake, while others think that since it's a selfie, it's not so like you, otherwise why buy this? So KW 1 can adjust the self-timer effect in the menu according to the different needs of users.

▲ Skin color 2, smooth skin 2

▲ Skin color 8, smooth skin 8

Others will say that the front camera of the mobile phone also has a self-timer function. Why spend a lot of money to buy another selfie artifact? Different people have different views on this issue. The selfie artifact has long been divorced from the concept of "camera", and others naturally look at it with new eyes. Secondly, the image quality of the front camera of a general mobile phone can't be guaranteed, especially now the screen of the mobile phone is 5.5 inches. It is easy to see the defects of the image quality on such a large screen, and the self-timer effect in places with poor light will be greatly reduced.

KW 1 also has a good performance in poor lighting environment.

Characteristic function analysis

If you are not satisfied with the photos taken for the first time, you can also do PS in the machine immediately. There are five adjustment items: skin color, smoothing skin, enlarging eyes, face-lifting and polishing. After adjustment, we can see that there will be obvious differences.

After the three tasks of face-thinning, skin smoothing and eye enlargement, we can see that the adjusted face is still natural, the skin is delicate and shiny, and the face is thinner.

LED lights can improve the illumination of human face, and the brightness can be improved in places with poor light. In some indoor scenes, LED lights can also balance the color temperature, making people's faces look less yellow.

WiFi selfie new gameplay
