There is something special about how cities look at night. When the day is over, our favorite cityscapes come to life and we often want to capture the scenes in front of us with our smartphones. But without a camera that can handle the nuances and challenges of night photography, that endeavor may be fruitless.
The Galaxy S10+'s night mode is the perfect tool for taking photos after the sun goes down. Accessible from the Camera app, Night Mode can be manually toggled on and off whenever you want to use it from the drop-down menu in the Camera app. Compared to photos taken without it enabled, Night Mode minimizes noise from a dark environment to enhance detail in a photo and corrects color, as well as other image qualities, to make photos in low light more vivid.
Samsung Press Room visited some of the major landmarks around Seoul after dark to see how the Galaxy S10+'s Night Mode can bring out every detail of a night scene, even in low light conditions .
A palace for all hours of the day
Deoksu Palace is one of four ancient palaces in Seoul, attracting visitors eager to admire its striking architecture day and night.
Junghwajeon, one of the royal courtyards of Deoksu Palace, was built in 1902 and features a striking golden exterior with intricate patterns, colors, and textures that are not easy to capture at night. However, by simply activating Night Mode on the Galaxy S10+, all the details of the courts come to life, thanks to Night Mode's clever dimming adjustment that adds vibrancy to photos taken after dark. Try using a tripod to level the top and bottom of the frame for an ever better shot of the ancient palace that captures every striking detail.
While the Galaxy range's Night Mode feature was previously only activated automatically when conditions were very dark (less than 1 lux), the Galaxy S10+'s Night Mode now allows users to get the most out of it as they can turn it on or off manually and use it for clearer night scenes.
Remarkable statues In the middle of city life
Seoul's Gwanghwamun Square, often bustling with pedestrians, is a place where the traditional and the modern collide. The neon lights of the buildings that mark it, as well as the bright lights of passing cars, form a patchwork of vibrant colors during the night, but can easily drown out the statues in the heart of the Plaza in pictures.
Thanks to the Galaxy S10+'s night mode, the two statues that are located in the heart of downtown Seoul (Admiral Yi Sun-sin, first photo, Sejong the Great, second photo) can be captured without any compromise on lighting eclectic of their environment. Night mode reduces camera sensitivity and decreases shutter speed, capturing bright light well despite the high contrast. Paired with the Galaxy S10 lineup's ultra-wide lens, Night Mode enables after-dark photos that can capture everything in the camera's field of view.
When urban meets rural
Naksan Park in northern Seoul offers sights that include a stark contrast between the area's historic fortress wall, idyllic mountain views, and the bustling nightlife of downtown Seoul.
But Galaxy S10+ users don't have to worry about losing detail when capturing close-up (first photo) or wide shots (second photo) of scenes with such high subject contrast. Without night mode enabled, the distinct features of the landscape would be lost, with city lights obscuring low-contrast areas such as the striking mountainous terrain in the distance. But by simply activating Night Mode, you can maximize your photo's visibility thanks to its intelligent noise reduction that balances different areas of contrast and light to bring out all aspects of a photo clearly, even in dim conditions. low light.
Sunset by the river
The Hangang Riverside Park lights up as the sun sets, and the variety of different light attractions on display are reflected in the Han River to often dazzling effect. Yet capturing this display of light from a variety of different light sources, from declining natural sunlight to the colorful facade of Hangang's floating islands, can present a challenge when seeking balance. in twilight images.
< p>With Galaxy S10+'s Night Mode, images come out more vibrant thanks to its automatic color correction software, resulting in bright, crisp photos that carefully negotiate all the different light sources on offer. For an even more vivid shot, users can change Night Mode settings to lower exposure compensation to capitalize on the darker aspects of a scene - without losing any of the color or detail.Bird's eye views
Seoul's Namsan Tower stands 479.7 meters above sea level, giving visitors a near-panoramic panoramic view of the city that comes alive at sunset.
One of Namsan Tower's best offerings for visitors is the opportunity it gives you to snap photos of the sprawling city below - as well as the striking tower itself against a diverse backdrop. But cloudy weather conditions add more disruptive photographic noise to images that obscures detail in a shot, especially for long-range views.
Just turn on Night Mode in the Camera app, Galaxy S10+ users can take photos that bring out the vivid colors of that cityscape at night thanks to Night Mode's smart noise reduction capabilities. Whether you're shooting a landmark (first photo) or capturing a bird's-eye view of a city (second photo), Galaxy S10+'s Night Mode optimizes color and contrast balance for dramatic effect. striking, even in less than ideal weather. terms.
