Recording Video - HTC 10 User Manual

57 Taking photos and videos
For clear, sharp shots
§ The laser auto focus intelligently finds the best shot based on its position and pointed
direction.
§ Tap the screen to focus and dynamically readjust the image contrast, which is sometimes
desirable if you wish to take a macro to get an off-center bokeh effect or take photos while
you're moving. Adjust the exposure to brighten the subject or make the subject look darker
and richer. For details, see
§ If the subject is moving, on the Viewfinder, press and hold the subject to lock the focus.
§ If there are parts of the image that are in shadows and others are in highlights, use HDR to
capture multiple shots of different exposures and combine them into one shot. Keep HTC 10
steady or place it on a level surface when using HDR. See
§ When taking a panoramic photo, consider the whole scene and focus on an object that has a
neutral tone to help keep the exposure balanced in the composite image.
§ Make sure you're not moving the camera when taking a photo, especially in low light
conditions. Hold the phone steady and don't move the camera while taking RAW photos in
Pro mode.
Other tips
§ In Camera settings, tap Grid to help frame the subject better or improve the composition.
§ After capturing, you can enhance the photo in the Google Photos
