How to Use Selective Focus Mode on Galaxy S7 Edge

Even though the Galaxy S7 Edge dropped from the 16MP found on the S6 to 12MP, you have no reason to be worried about. Let me tell you from the start that the fact that the pixels on your smartphone are much larger, so you have nothing to lose. In case of not knowing, Samsung calls them Dual pixels, a technology initially built for DSLR cameras, which lets more light come in and this practically generates sharper and brighter shots. Even more, it also helps the autofocus lock on your target faster than before and this is not all. The company has many other surprises at this chapter.

When it comes to the default auto shooting mode, I have only one thing to tell you right from the start: generally speaking, the shooting mode from the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge will work just fine most of your photos, but some of the other modes available can be quite useful, if not even perfect in certain conditions.

For example, do you know about Selective Focus mode which allows you to make specific objects or areas stand out in your photo and practically tweak the focus to your liking? There’s much more to discover about it and it would be your loss not to do it. Essentially, the selective focus mode that I am telling you about works by taking multiple photos of your subject at varying focus levels, then letting you change the focus of your photo after it’s been saved to your gallery.

This is the best way of avoiding those annoying blurry images, though you do have to allow a bit more time for the camera to snap multiple shots. Isn’t this a problem? Then, here’s what you have to do:
