Smartphone photography is all the rage today. Having seemingly hit the glass ceiling when it comes to innovation in connectivity, the global smartphone makers are now majorly fixating on one thing: photography.
Resultantly, smartphone cameras are getting smarter and more powerful by the day. Being the focus of innovation, these photography monsters have begun to rival even the professional DSLR cameras which were the youth’s craze until recently.
To get insights into the latest photography trends among Pakistan’s youth, and to understand their preference for a professional photography smartphone over a traditional DSLR, smartphone maker vivo recently conducted a public poll on social media.
The massive public response had some interesting revelations – a high preference was found for smartphones over traditional DSLRs when it came to professional photography and video shoots, shedding light on how smartphones have become more than just connectivity devices.
As per the poll findings, 63% of respondents were found to be most likely to opt for a high-end smartphone suitable for professional-level photos instead of a DSLR camera. The results give us a deep insight into how the trends have dramatically shifted in a just matter of years.
The poll also points to vivo’s own rise as a brand that offers some of the most advanced smartphone cameras in the industry. A global smartphone brand, vivo has come a long way in Pakistan to become a leading customer-centric brand in the country.
Pakistan is a growing market and holds a lot of potential with growing local interest for innovative smartphones with futuristic technologies and sophisticated designs. vivo places tremendous importance on providing consumers with trendy and powerful devices that are an extension of their style and empower them to explore and create more.
vivo’s strategic focus on revolutionizing the overall mobile photography experience is evident from the recent launch of its premium flagship V20 series with industry-leading technology of Eye Autofocus to redefine selfie capabilities.
Moreover, the company has recently partnered with ZEISS, a leader in optics and opto-electronic industry, which includes the establishment of the vivo-ZEISS Imaging Lab, the development of a vivo ZEISS Co-engineered Imaging System and an initiative to co-promote new mobile imaging technologies among consumers across the globe.
As anticipated in the news and social media, the flagship X series will come bearing the gift of vivo ZEISS partnership soon in Pakistan. vivo X series is positioned as the professional photography flagship segment of smartphones packed with an impressive camera experience, a sleek design, and a high-performing set of internals, ideal for today’s creators.
The upcoming launches in the flagship series may witness significant innovation in terms of the camera – the X series already arrived with Gimbal stabilization 2.0 which truly holds a lot of merit for professional photographers, videographers, and others from the content creation community.
