Vivo's latest mobile phone series, the vivo S18, will be officially released on December 14, continuing to highlight its focus and innovation in the field of mobile photography. The vivo S18 series inherits the excellent photography technology of its predecessor, the X100 series, but also incorporates more advanced imaging features, especially in portrait photography.
The hardware configuration of the Vivo S18 Pro is worth mentioning, as it is equipped with the same Sony 50-megapixel flagship main camera sensor as the X100 series, an ultra-wide-angle sensor, and a professional telephoto lens inherited from the X90S series. In addition, its 50-million-pixel wide-angle dual soft light configuration is also at the top level in the industry. However, hardware isn't the only aspect of Vivo's efforts, and its advancements in imaging software algorithms are just as remarkable.
Portrait photography has always been a challenging area in mobile imaging technology. The success of the vivo S18 series is not only due to its superior hardware, but also due to the fact that vivo has invested ten years of research and development in portrait photography technology. From the initial soft light**, to the current cinematic touching portraits and studio-level atmosphere, vivo continues to innovate in the field of imaging. The portrait technology of the vivo S18 series is derived from the daguerreotype, which is the first photographic technology in history to capture portraits with brilliance. vivo combines this classic technology with modern technology to create its unique "hippocampal memory" portrait photography method.
In the vivo S18 series, this technology mainly relies on three types of light processing: key light, backlight, and fill light. These three types of light are realized in vivo S18 through the control of the flagship-level chip, the light sensitivity of the top lens sensor, and the intelligent fill light technology of vivo's self-developed soft light ring, which together create a studio-level shooting atmosphere.
