Mobile Photography Tips and Tricks from vivo Y22s' Superb Camera Features

It is undeniable that almost everyone now carries a camera with them via their smartphone all the time. What's more noteworthy is that these gadgets keep on improving with better specs and functionalities. Case in point: the vivo Y22s. It unapologetically flaunts supreme photography with its 50MP Super Night main camera, 2MP Macro camera, 8MP front camera, and relevant features.

You've got the tool, but how about the skills? Are they at par with the ever-upgrading camera phone capabilities? If not, maybe this list can help. If you want to take more stunning snapshots with your mobile phone, here are a few tips and tricks to guide you.

1. Start with a clean lens

 This may sound mundane and trivial, but most people don't remember to do it. It is so easy to ignore the dust, dirt, and smudges that can accumulate on your camera phone. So make it a habit to clean your lens before a shoot. You will be amazed how a quick wipe could produce crystal clear images.

2. Let there be natural light

Light is one of the most vital factors for any picture to look good, but it might be the best to avoid using flash as it is still better shooting with natural light. It makes the images look great, pure, and clean. Photos taken during the golden hour look divine because of the hues and the soft, flattering effect. 

And if you shoot in low light conditions or at night, this is where vivo Y22s' Super Night camera comes in handy. It utilizes a large sensor that gathers light like a professional camera, delivering industry-leading 50MP high definition images every time. You can most certainly relive the most significant and remarkable moments captured in photos with full vivid details. Meanwhile, the 2MP macro camera highlights tiny and exciting gems hidden from your naked eyes, with a focus that draws as close as 4cm. 

On the flip side of the smartphone, the 8MP front camera shows your vibrant self no matter how bright or dim your surroundings are. The Super Night Selfie uses noise reduction technology and a selfie softlight band to generate a gentle light giving you a fresh looking selfie photo even after a long day at work. 

3. Keep the focus

Because of technological advancements, mobile phone cameras can now take a hint at what you want to photograph. They smartly recognize faces and other main subjects in clear scenes. However, in more complex or less-than-ideal situations, a simple tap on the screen, on the point where you want the camera to focus, can be done to avoid blurry shots and get a sharp result. Making smartphone photography easier and more professional looking, the vivo Y22s is also equipped with Bokeh camera feature to capture the subject's depth. When mastered, this trick bring more life to photos and deliver a realistic image as seen by the naked eyes. 

4. Get creative with your composition

Follow the rule of thirds and try to steer clear of placing your subject right in the center. Imagine breaking an image down into thirds (both horizontally and vertically - basically 9 even squares). Place the subjects in the intersections or along the lines of your photo to create a more balanced and fascinating composition. 

Also, symmetry often does wonders and makes pictures more interesting. Using a natural frame, like a window, a doorway, or an arch, around your subject is also aesthetically pleasing. And especially or panoramic shots, straighten the horizon by turning on your camera grid to display a set of lines across the screen.

5. Experiment an edit your images

Getting good pictures from your phone doesn't start and end with your camera. You can also use photo-editing apps to tweak your shots as you please. Thankfully, the vivo Y22s features Multi-Style Portrait mode for both the rear and front cameras. This is specifically designed to include face beauty, Bokeh, among many styles. 

For the rear camera, you may choose among natural, vintage, northen lands, fashion, summer party, Japanese style, monochrome, silver salt, and wet settings. On the other hand, the front camera, fresh, texture, 1980s, rococo, gray, film, holiday, Kyoto cherry, and Tokyo style are available for you to use. 

Take unlimited shots and pick the best later

Some of these guidelines are unbelievably basic, while some techniques may need more time for you to get used to. The key to making all this work perfectly is to practice. Take as many photos as you can. Study the results and take notes of how they can be improved. Fortunately, the vivo Y22s won't let you down with the amount of files you can save as it boasts up to 16GB Dynamic RAM and 128GB Storage that supports 1TB expansion via microSD card.
