The lower the speed, the blurrier the effect will be. At this point, it also becomes impossible to shoot handheld, so you'll want to stick your phone on a tripod. Remember, when you manually set the shutter, other values such as ISO will be automatically adjusted to compensate for the overall exposure. The ISO level determines the sensor's sensitivity to light. A lower value is best used when there's ample light around but when shooting in low light, a higher value increases the sensitivity so even a small light source is enough to give you a decently lit image.
However, a high ISO value also introduces noise or grain in the image. In most circumstances, it's best to leave the ISO at Auto, however if you want to get a better low light shot, you could try using a longer shutter time and a lower ISO for a brighter image, while keeping noise to a minimum. Remember that the phone will have to be stabilised, either on a tripod or resting against something to avoid motion blur. Light painting is a fun little hack that you can try using Pro mode.
It's essentially a long exposure shot, which is taken in darkness with the only moving object being a light source, thus creating fun patterns in the final image. For this trick, you'll need to have your phone on a tripod or resting against something since we're talking about using shutter speeds anywhere from 10 seconds to 30 seconds, depending on what you wish to create.
You can create some fun artwork, if you're persistent enough. You'll also want to set the ISO to the lowest possible value, which is usually Besides aperture, you can also control the depth of field by adjusting your distance from the subject. Get in close, and you can add bokeh effect to your photo similar to the "Live Focus" feature.
White balance refers to the warmness or coolness of your photo. Warm light appears more yellow, while cool light is blueish. In manual mode, this setting is used to correct the natural light of the scene by applying a "filter" so that the light appears neutral or white. It can also be used to get the desired effect without the need for external lights, such as giving a photo an old-time feel with a warmer white balance.
For most photos, we recommend leaving this setting on automatic. You can edit white balance after the photo is taken with virtually no loss in quality, and the phone does a great job of adjusting the white balance based on the scene anyway.
Metering is how your smartphone's camera determines the correct shutter speed based on the amount of light reaching the camera and the current ISO. Essentially, it is your camera's light meter.
Matrix metering takes the entire frame, divides it into multiple areas, and then analyzes them for light and dark tones. It also determines the most important zone and adjusts exposure to prioritize that zone.
Center-weight evaluates exposure based on the middle of the frame, ignoring any focus point you select. Spot metering determines the exposure based on your focus point, ignoring everywhere else. Installing it requires you to sideload it, which may be a difficult process for those of you who have never dabbled in it before.
