One of the most fascinating new features on the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro is the night mode. This enables significantly better shots in poor lighting conditions. But how does it work? We'll show you how you can use the night mode on the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro manually and automatically.
The new iPhone Pro camera has an ultra-wide-angle, wide-angle and telephoto lens. The field of view of the ultra-wide-angle lens is around 120 degrees, while the iPhone 11 comes with a wide-angle and ultra-wide-angle lens. Despite the different camera modules, both device versions have a common and, above all, long overdue feature - night mode. The new night mode is basically not a function that can simply be selected like portrait mode, for example. Apple has designed this important feature so that it usually works automatically. However, there is a way to control the function manually - the prerequisite for this, however, is that the iPhone detects a slightly lower light value.
How to use Night Mode on iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro
As soon as you open the camera app in a poorly lit environment, you should see the small moon symbol in the top left (portrait mode) - in landscape mode it is in the top right. If the symbol is gray, it is deactivated - but you can manually turn it on with a tap. If the symbol appears yellow, night mode is already activated. Note: If the iPhone camera detects low light conditions, the feature is activated automatically. If the ambient light is bright enough, the mode cannot be activated.
With another tap on the moon symbol, the exposure time is calibrated manually. Depending on the environment, different exposure times are available to choose from. Important: The iPhone should be held as still as possible when taking a night shot. Have fun taking photos with your iPhone 11 or iPhone 11 Pro. By the way, initial tests have shown that even Android flagships can no longer keep up with the iPhone camera - cool, right?! (Photo by Viktoriya Fivko / Bigstockphoto)
