Night Sight adapts to you and the environment so you can capture the moment effortlessly. Here are some additional tips to get the most out of your phone’s camera in low light:
- If you’re taking a photo of someone, ask them to hold still for a few seconds before and after you press the shutter button.
- Hold the phone steady. If you can, try propping it against a stable surface.
- Make sure the camera lens is clean. It can accumulate oil from fingerprints, creating blurry and soft photos.
- Try tapping on or around your subject to help your camera focus when taking photos in very dark conditions.
- Avoid pointing your camera at bright light sources, which may cause unwanted reflections in your photo.
- Cameras don’t work in complete darkness, so you’ll still need some light to capture a photo.
