Aww…its first time she took her baby steps”, “Woah!!! Such a cool art”, “Oh, that cute smile I want to cherish that”.
Don’t these situations sound familiar to you too? If yes, we are sure that the next thought must be to seize such moments for a lifetime but you couldn’t. Factually, the point & shoot or DSLR cameras were not handy to be taken everywhere. This is where the camera centric smartphones took its pace & replaced these cameras from the laymen use.
Now, additions like telephoto & macro lenses in the camera setup are drooling us & leaving with more expectations. But all these modes have made it difficult to understand the vivo camera features. Well, here we have got you covered with some tips & tricks. Read the article to find out details of how to use these different camera modes right way.
Ultra Wide Angle Mode
As the first things first, why we need an ultra-wide angle lens?
In comparison to the human eye, the regular camera lens captures a lesser area. It’s the ultra-wide angle lens with which covers the area that’s approx to eye view.
This mode works best when you need to capture an extended eccentric beauty in one shot. Through this mode, one gets nearly 108⁰ field of view after the edge correction from 120⁰ total captured picture.

Ultra wide angle mode of V17
How to use Ultra Wide Angle mode best way-
Usually, pictures clicked through this mode are cool but works best for taking pictures of skyscrapers, cliffs, constructions & other alike composition.
Well, if your picture has a sea, grassland, desert or a countryside setting, make sure your subject has contrasting bold colours or else the results will look dreary. It is so because the monotonous composition in broad shots fails to wow. The same applies to try portraits in a street. If your subject is a human, then the presence of the crowd will give chaotic results.
But then, there is vivo V17 which offers the portrait mode in wide-angle as well & here’s how you can get it.
- Go to the camera
- Click on the portrait feature.
- Tap on ‘white button’ present at right corner of the screen.
- Tap on the ‘ultra wide angle’ option.

However, you can bring focus on your subject with editing software just as required.
Some Do’s & Don’ts for wide angle camera mode in your vivo smartphone:
Do's |
Don'ts |
|
Try to incorporate frames in your shots by using elements nearby such as trees, doors, windows, rocks, stalls, etc.
|
Don’t use wide angle mode too close to your face for portrait shots as it creates distortions like big faceas here in picture.
|
|
To take close up shots of the subject instead of capturing broad horizontal shots try to capture full view vertically.
|
Don’t just stick to regular landscape view. Also, try out vertical shots to get some interesting out of the box pictures.

Bokeh Mode
Before you step ahead, it’s important to know the common terms i.e. bokeh & portrait.
The effect that you achieve using the portrait mode is called bokeh. In this mode, the background is kept out of focus with a blurry effect. However, if talked about vivo smartphones, the portrait mode is for taking blur background pictures of a human while the bokeh mode works for everything else giving the same effect. Also, the portrait mode offers you some interesting pre-set blurred background lightning effects for taking selfies.
How to use bokeh mode best way-
The best part of clicking a picture in the bokeh effect is that you are flexible to shoot in almost every situation. It helps you to cancel out the background & shifts focus to the subject only. But adjusting blur is the key to get cool pictures shot like a pro. In the vivo v17, you can reduce or increase the amount of bokeh effect following these steps:
- Go to the camera.
- Tap on the portrait feature.
- Click on the ‘white button’ present at right corner of the screen.
- Tap on the ‘bokeh’ mode.
- Tap on the subject to bring focus on it & increase or reduce the aperture setting by moving the aperture icon present next to focus square.
