Night Mode

Features and usage guide for Night mode.

Overview

Night mode captures bright and clear photos in dark environments. It reduces noise and increases brightness by capturing multiple photos and combining them.

How It Works

  1. Long exposure collects more light
  2. Multiple photos are captured
  3. Noise reduction algorithms are applied
  4. Combined to produce a bright, clean image

When Night Mode is Effective

  • Dark indoor: Poorly lit work sites
  • Outdoor at night: Field work after sunset
  • Underground spaces: Basements, warehouses with minimal lighting
  • When flash is impractical: Highly reflective surfaces

When Not to Use
