How To Use Hyperlapse Camera Mode On Galaxy S8 And Galaxy S8 Plus
What’s your favorite feature of Samsung’s latest flagship, Galaxy S8 Plus? Is it the sleek and elegant design, the dust and water resistance, or, perhaps, the microSD support? If it’s the Camera app, you must already have some clues on its enhanced features. Still, do you really know it all? How about the recently added new shooting modes? Have you used them?
We’re not talking about the Motion Panorama Shot that lets you recover subject movements within the Panorama Shot mode, though it’s a pretty cool thing to try. We’re not talking about the Food mode either, though one picture of any kind of food with this mode turned on will probably instantly make you drool. And, of course, there’s the Pro mode, which, as you must have discovered all by yourself, takes some skills to use all its advanced options.
All these left aside, in today’s article, we would like to focus on the more and more popular Hyperlapse videos. Social media channels are spreading these videos like charm and it’s a great thing if you can try it too. The beauty is that it is not even that hard to use. Samsung Galaxy S8 Plus devices have the Hyperlapse mode as a default camera mode and you won’t have to install any kind of third-party app to enjoy it.
Is this the first time when you hear about the Hyperlapse videos? We’re sure you’ve seen them online before, though you might have been unaware that they are called this way. In a nutshell, Hyperlapse allows you to make a video of a couple of seconds by compressing hours and hours of video footage! Illustrating subject movement and time passing and creating a particularly unique kind of video, that’s what this mode is for.
Now that you know the essence and you know you can try it for free, maybe you are interested in learning…
