The 15th lecture hall of mobile phone photography: How to play the big aperture of mobile phone?

IT 168？ It is a great honor to invite Yang Jun, a freelance photographer, as the lecturer of this lecture hall for evaluating mobile phone photography.

Many netizens will be deeply touched when they see some beautiful pictures on the Internet or in magazines. Why can't I take such beautiful photos? But in fact, as long as you know and skillfully use the aperture, your photos will be upgraded to a new level immediately, showing a completely different effect. This time we will talk about the use of large aperture in mobile phones.

For most netizens, the most intuitive embodiment of a large aperture for the picture is that it can make the depth of field shallow and make the focused subject stand out from the messy background, which is a common effect of clearing the front and blurring the back. At the same time, if the large aperture is used properly, you can take a very beautiful lens and create an atmosphere for the picture.

▲ This is a legend.

Although most mobile phones use fixed aperture at present, there is theoretically no way to adjust the aperture size like SLR, but with the rise of various late-stage apps or the mobile phone equipped with large aperture simulation technology, we can easily take photos with shallow depth of field on the mobile phone.

The mobile phone used by Yang Jun this time is Glory V8, the latest flagship of Glory. Its biggest feature is that it is equipped with a dual12 megapixel main lens, dual sensors and dual ISP. When shooting, you can capture the depth of field information through dual cameras to complete a step of taking pictures first and then focusing. And through the algorithm of the fuselage, the effect of large aperture can be simulated. Then let's follow Yang Jun to see how to take a photo with the same aperture as a SLR with a mobile phone!

▲ To get a large aperture effect on Glory V8, you need to choose a large aperture mode first.

▲? Glory V8 can simulate the aperture size by algorithm, with the maximum value of f/0.95 and the minimum value of f/ 16. For many SLR, there are few lenses with f/0.95 aperture, and f/0.95 aperture can bring a very dreamy effect.

▲ It can be seen that after using the large aperture mode, the messy background is weakened, which highlights the main body well. At the same time, because V8' s dual lens records more information, we can choose the front and back focus points like a light field camera in the later stage, so as to achieve the effect of taking pictures first and then focusing. (V8 maximum aperture f/0.95 on the left and minimum aperture f/ 16 on the right).

Next, let's take a look at the proofs taken by Yang Jun after using the large aperture mode.

After reading Yang Jun's sample, have you been tempted by the effect brought by the large aperture? In fact, you really don't need a SLR to take photos with shallow depth of field, and you can also take good results with your mobile phone.

It is worth mentioning that there are not many mobile phones equipped with dual cameras optimized for taking photos, such as Glory V8. Although many softwares in the later period can achieve the effect similar to light field cameras, there are still many gaps compared with V8 specially optimized for this purpose.

Did you learn anything after reading Yang Jun's tutorial? Might as well pick up the machine in your hand and try to take pictures with a large aperture!
