The phone is available for a fraction of the price of other smartphones, and contains many of the same features. It\u2019s no wonder, then, that the Honor 8 smartphone also features an impressive camera with a 12-megapixel dual rear camera and an 8-megapixel front-facing camera. Few smartphones on the market offer a dual camera, but when they do, it\u2019s at a much higher price point. The purpose of the dual camera is to take photos in both color and black and white, in order to improve the camera\u2019s low light performance. Now that you know what the Honor 8 has to offer, it\u2019s time to take advantage of that camera and take some amazing photos.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>How to Take a Selfie<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>The Honor 8 includes a few features that will make selfie-taking even easier. You can set (or disable) a timer, use your voice to capture a photo, or set your camera to automatically capture a photo whenever it detects a smile. For sharper selfies with the front-facing camera, make sure to disable the \u201cbeauty\u201d mode, which automatically blurs and airbrushes your photos. If you want to edit a photo, it\u2019s best to take a sharp image and later edit it on your phone or in an app like VSCO.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.psafe.com\/en\/blog\/best-android-camera-apps-flawless-photos\/\">Read More: 4 Best Android Camera Apps<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Dual Rear Camera<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As previously mentioned, the camera takes photos in color and black and white. This improves the sharpness and visibility of a photo whenever there is little light available, such as at nighttime. If you can hold the phone steady for several seconds \u2014 or have a tripod \u2014 the camera will take excellent photos when in \u201cnight\u201d mode. An additional tip: use of a tripod is generally a great way to get the best photos from the Honor 8 camera, during daytime or nighttime.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>HDR Mode<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Like with other smartphones, use the HDR mode to improve the contrast between light and dark elements of your photos. This will result in sharper images.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Wide Aperture Mode<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>A tripod will also be handy to get the best photos with this feature. Wide aperture mode will allow you to focus on an object in an image and blur the background. You can even refocus the image or adjust the aperture after you\u2019ve taken the photo.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Fun Photo Editing Effects<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re into glossy, highly edited images, then the Honor 8\u2019s camera effects are a fun option to try. With the various effects you can capture light trails from moving cars or buildings at night, blur moving water, and capture star movement at night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the best features of the Honor 8 smartphone is its camera.
