Night mode
Here, the yellow Night mode
icon has activated automatically. It
has chosen a four–second exposure to
capture the scene’s details. After tapping
the shutter button, a countdown slider
indicates the exposure time.

Motion blur
This Night mode shot was
captured with a handheld iPhone 11 Pro.
Despite the slow shutter speed of 1/10 of
second, the static background is sharp
while the walking person displays motion
blur that adds energy to the scene.

Burst mode
On an older iPhone, you can
capture a series of consecutive shots
by holding your finger on the shutter
button. On the iPhone 11, drag left (or
down) to trigger Burst mode. A shot
number will appear in the shutter button.

an iPhone 11 model, a tripod is not as
essential thanks to Night mode.
