Take photos "like a pro" with Oppo N3

Oppo opens your imagination by letting you take creative and sharp photos of moments you want to remember with full color and detail. 

Professional cameras require significant investments and are often bulky in build — for this reason, they are often not embraced by many.

This is the claim of Chinese manufacturer Oppo after re-introducing the camera features their flagship smartphone boasts, that allow users to take photos "like a pro" with the built-in 16-megapixel camera.

"The Oppo N3 is the perfect device for photography enthusiasts," said the company in a statement.

Oppo features a first-of-its-kind automated swivel camera.

The N3 also comes equipped with the company's "Pure Image 2.0+" software, which basically makes the necessary adjustments for the user in order to take the best photo possible.

It includes tweaks to the white balance settings, brightness adjustment, auto focus, and face recognition, among others.

The smartphone also has a dual LED flash, an auto panorama mode, and target-tracking focus shift function, that will enable users to take clear photos of moving targets.

The N3 also has a Ultra-HD feature, which has become a staple for most smartphones, that takes multiple shots of one image before stitching it together to create an "high-definition" image.

The Oppo N3, unveiled last October, has a price tag of P29,000 in the Philippines.

When the OPPO N3 was released in October, we witnessed the next evolution of mobile photography — singlehanded control, an effortless panoramic mode, and an exciting target-tracking focus shift function.

But these functions only scratch the surface. 

Let’s zoom in on the OPPO N3 to see what makes it an amazing compact camera smartphone.

Pure Image 2.0+ Smart Command Flagship Configuration

Let’s take a look at the imaging features of the N3: a 16MP Schneider-Kreuznach certified lens offering a maximum resolution of 64MP; a pixel size of 1.34 micron and integration of 5 optical lenses, a configuration that exceeds the standard of current flagship Android devices; an optimum balance between high resolution and the photo-sensitive area; and a dual LED flash that provides more natural lighting for images.

Utilizing the highest level of performance from the hardware calls for the implementation of a comprehensive software engine—this is where OPPO’s PI 2.0+ comes into play.

The PI 2.0+ image platform enables the N3 to handle a multitude of different photography settings. OPPO analyzed thousands of common photography settings to construct a matching library, which features more than a hundred unique functions.

When you activate the camera, the PI engine will start by performing a smart analysis of the environment and will identify its unique characteristics. The engine will then provide the most appropriate color optimization solution. With an improved optimization algorithm, the PI 2.0+ is able to complete this complicated matching process in an instant.

Plenty of settings for sophisticated photographic task

The camera modes of the PI 2.0+ image platform can be fully personalized, turning your smartphone to your own private photography suite. This plug-in feature will allow you to fully realize your creative talent.

The smart image plug-in feature of PI 2.0+ helps the N3 create a series of sophisticated and unique photography experiences. Offering options similar to that of professional cameras along with flexible and customizable settings, you can take fantastic pictures anytime, anywhere.

Using the Auto Panorama mode, you can appear in multiple locations in the same picture without post-editing tediously since the camera rotates on its own. Before using the feature, choose 3 to 4 segments within the 206° view of the N3’s camera. After the camera finishes scanning the first segment, you can move out of the focus area and shift to the next segment before the camera takes the shot.

Shake hands with yourself

With OPPO’s N3, it’s now possible to shake hands with yourself using the double exposure effect. To use the double exposure plug-in, simply activate the double exposure function and pose for the first picture. At this point, your first image will increase its transparency and will remain on the display—that is your cue to take a second shot. The second photo will overlap the first photo. The PI 2.0+ will automatically merge the two images into one.

See finer details

Don’t let memories slip away because of poor image resolution. Now that OPPO has the PI 2.0+ platform, you can capture every detail with its Ultra-HD feature. The OPPO N3 is equipped with a multi-frame synthesis super-sampling technique that combines multiple low resolution RAW images into an ultra-high resolution picture with finer details.

Compared with conventional interpolation method, the Ultra-HD generates outstanding, high-quality pictures that closely resemble those taken with traditional high resolution sensor components. Improve your image’s quality to an astounding 64-MP or 32-MP resolution and see beauty in high definition.

Take photos like a pro

Professional photography has never sounded more fun than it does with a Compact Camera Smartphone like OPPO N3. Professional cameras have powerful features that exceed the image quality and effects of ordinary cameras. However, they require significant investments and are often bulky in build—for this reason, they are often not embraced by users.

With the common notion that professional cameras are not for everyone, OPPO has released a camera plug-in with features such as white balance, ISO, exposure compensation and manual focus. This lets everyday users experience the sophistication of a professional camera with their smartphone.
