ToF camera<\/a> on the back and front, and a 12MP ultra-wide selfie camera.<\/p>\nShooting modes include Photo, Portrait, Night, Video, Movie, Aperture, Pro, Slow-mo, Panorama, Time-lapse, Stickers, Documents, Super macro, Multi-video, High-res and Story.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The most interesting mode is definitely Pro video mode. In addition to offering manual control over ISO, shutter speed, exposure, focus, and white balance, it also supports LOG capture for easy editing and nine pre-installed LUTs. These can be applied in the phone’s editing suite too \u2013 a much simpler take on pro video than that offered by Sony phones like the Xperia 1 III.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Honor Magic Pro 4 camera review<\/span><\/h2>\nPhotos from the Magic 4 Pro’s camera look great when captured in bright, outdoor environments. The lack of optical image stabilization is only noticeable in the darkest scenes, and in turn, the Magic 4 Pro’s primary camera didn’t feel like a compromise in our time with it. On the contrary, its photos packed a natural balance to them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The primary camera is versatile enough to take close-up photography, tag-teaming with the ultra-wide to capture different styles of macro shots with varying shallow depth.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sharpening isn’t too aggressive from any camera, though the telephoto camera’s photos crisp up a bit beyond 10x zoom, which employs a combination of 3.5x optical zoom with digital zoom. This takes advantage of the high-resolution 64MP sensor and does a great job of besting the iPhone and OnePlus 10 Pro’s telephoto cameras while falling not too far behind that of the Galaxy S22 Ultra.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Additionally, the selfie camera does a respectable job of separating foreground and background objects, keeps skin tones looking warm, and captures plenty in frame with its wide 100\u00ba angle of view.\u00a0<\/p>\n
We ended up doing most of our video shooting in Pro mode, given how enjoyable we found retro-fitting different LUTS to our LOG footage. This video, which we captured at 60fps in 4K resolution looked steady when handheld. Unsurprisingly, though, we reliably got the best results when capturing video steadied on a tripod.<\/p>\n
