Taking photos of moving objects is a challenge that many smartphone cameras struggle with. OPPO is now putting an end to this problem and presenting Lightning Snap, an innovation that is being used for the first time in the new OPPO Find X8 Pro. The feature promises continuous shooting of the highest quality – without compromising on image sharpness.
The most important features at a glance:
- Continuous shooting with up to 200 images without loss of quality
- Instant Dual Exposure for perfect exposure even in difficult lighting conditions
- Off-Peak Computing Architecture for fast background processing
- HyperTone Image Engine, which combines up to nine raw shots into one image
Moving objects captured sharply
With Lightning Snap, OPPO specifically addresses the common problem of motion blur in moving subjects. As soon as the Find X8 Pro’s camera is activated, the device’s own AI analyzes the scene at pixel level. If a moving object is detected, the camera automatically adjusts the autofocus and shutter speed to capture even dynamic moments in razor-sharp focus.
By holding down the shutter button, up to seven pictures per second can be taken – and up to 200 shots in a row. Thanks to the Off-Peak Computing Architecture, the system separates the recording from the image processing so that the camera remains ready for use at all times. In the background, the HyperTone Image Engine processes the raw images and combines them into vivid and detailed series images.
Innovative exposure technology
Another highlight is the Instant Dual Exposure function, which combines two exposures for a perfect result. While an extremely short exposure captures movement, a longer exposure ensures optimum light capture. The two exposures are merged in real time to create a single, high-quality image. This technology shines particularly well in low-light situations or when the speed of movement is high, where other cameras often fail.
The necessary processing power is provided by the powerful Dimensity 9400 chipset of the OPPO Find X8 Pro. Its image signal processors (ISP) and neural processing units (NPU) are specially designed for AI-supported photography and guarantee impressive results.
Fast access for the perfect moment
OPPO has introduced the Quick Button so that users never miss a shot again. With a double tap, the camera opens in just 0.4 seconds – faster than ever before. A single tap instantly triggers a photo, while holding the button activates Lightning Snap. This intuitive operation makes spontaneous shots quick and easy.
In the future, an update will improve the function even further so that a double tap on the Quick Button will immediately take a photo while the camera starts in the background.
Conclusion
With Lightning Snap, OPPO takes smartphone photography to a new level. Thanks to advanced AI technologies, innovative exposure methods and lightning-fast continuous shooting, taking pictures of moving subjects is easier and more precise than ever. The OPPO Find X8 Pro is therefore an excellent choice for amateur photographers and technology enthusiasts. The smartphone is now available with Lightning Snap. Lightning Snap reflects OPPO’s commitment to providing a seamless, intuitive photography experience. A few weeks ago, visitors to Paris Photo were able to marvel at special photos that were honored with the OPPO imagine IF Photography Award.
