What is Professional mode?
Professional mode is a common feature on Vivo phones, which allows users to take more customized, professional looking, shots by tweaking various attributes of the camera, its lens, optics and so on.
ISO(感光度):
This feature is one of the essential ones in the list of options available in Professional mode. ISO is basically the sensitivity of the camera’s image sensor to ambient light. The unit of measurement is a number, with a higher number meaning more sensitivity to light, and a lower one meaning lesser sensitivity.
Shutter Speed(快门速度)(S):
Which can be referred synonymously to exposure time or duration, is the amount/duration of time for which the camera’s image sensor is exposed to light. So, the longer the shutter stays open, the more light will reach the image sensor resulting in a brighter image.
A lower ISO value takes longer to capture the same amount of light (more shutter time) that will be captured while using a higher ISO. The key here is to remember to balance between ISO, to manage the quality of the image, exposure, and how fast the shot requires to be taken.
White Balance(白平衡)(WB):
This is a commonly found setting in many phone cameras Professional mode.It adjusts the color of the white light in your image (between red and blue) and offsets all the other colors accordingly. Intelligently tweaking this, will result is color accurate photographs.
Exposure value(曝光补偿)(EV) :
Exposure value (EV) is a number that represents a combination of a camera’s shutter speed and f-number, such that all combinations that yield the same exposure have the same EV (for any fixed scene luminance).
EV Compensation helps to fix this by telling the camera to expose at a higher or lower setting than it thinks is right. For very bright settings (like the snow or beach), set an EV value as a positive number (+1/3, +1 etc). For very dark scenes, choose a negative EV number.
AF(自动对焦):
Quickly detects the position of an object in the scene to make it clearer.
MF(手动对焦):
Adjust the focus value to focus on the objects.
Histogram(直方图):
Reflect the brightness distribution of the current photo. The horizontal axis represents the photo brightness, and the vertical axis presents the relative number of pixels in the brightness range.
Warmly Tips: Histogram is only available in Funtouch OS 4.0 and higher version.
