Abstract EN
People use photography to capture feelings, events and personal experiences, and to communicate with others.
The latest innovations not only support interactions of people with technology, but also facilitate new forms of interaction with others.
Camera phones in particular are examples of such technology.
In recent years their primary function has changed from being a medium of verbal or text communication to one that uses pictures to facilitate people’s social life.
Mobile phones with integrated camera and video features have changed the way people communicate, interact and shape their social activities.
But almost everyone makes excuses when publishing photos taken with a camera phone, because they are unacceptably blurry and show almost nothing but smeared lights and the camera’s own noise.
Image blur due to unsteady grip is a significant problem for camera phones.
If we take pictures in daylight, we may be satisfied with the quality of mobile images.
However, when we move to a less bright indoor environment, we start to notice the difference.
Mobile images appear to have more noise, they are usually blurry and lack detail in shadows.
Things change once we are under low luminance.
Double-check the height and width of every image we post on our favorite channels and making sure these images look good in all possible formats is a time-consuming and frustrating process, especially since the content is accessible from a variety of devices.
The study is based on experimental researches on how to take high quality pictures with a camera phone and use them in social media channels This study aims to get high quality pictures from camera phones, even in low light conditions and use these images in social media channels.
The study thus concludes that, the standard exposure did not achieve high quality results in low-light conditions, while using additional photographic techniques such as “Blurless Exposure” contributed to obtain high quality images even in low-light conditions.In addition to following the rules of camera phone photography, contributed to improving the quality of the image, it’s extremely important that our content is high quality and not blurred, pixilated or otherwise deprecated in any way, social media channels compress the images and this affects badly on the image quality.
We need to get our facts and figures straight.
The use of images correctly in social media channels and following the official recommendations of each social media channel, contributes to post and use images correctly
