Let’s talk about the camera features

The HONOR 200 5G boasts of a 50MP Wide Main Camera + OIS, 50MP telephoto + OIS, 12MP Ultrawide and Macro Camera + EIS, and 50MP Selfie Camera with an impressive integration of Harcourt Portrait Mode for studio-like camera capabilities.

 

The 50MP camera comes with a powerful 50x zoom which makes my location at vantage point, see the tail of the airplane about to take off at the runway. That’s how powerful a 50x zoom is. It also has OIS or optical image stabilization which is a plus for the newer models as it allows you to take photos even when there is a little jitter or shake especially when you are taking it handheld only without a stand.

 

To show you how powerful the 50x zoom is, here’s a bird’s eye view of the air distance from my place to the airport is 8.2 kilometers.

This makes the HONOR 200 5G series a flagship killer. It also marks as the AI Portrait Master that is star-studded for GMA Gala Night 2024.

 

DSLR or phone camera? 

Whenever a phone brand tells the story that their phone camera is better than a dslr, that keeps me think a lot but more often than not, they fail during my test.

Last July, i had a media coverage for an event in Cebu. Fear of overloading my luggage, i left my camera behind. Now, i was wary of how things will turn out since i don’t have a camera with me.

Did i regret it or not?

The moment i sat down on the plane going to Cebu, i was anxious in covering the 1 week long event without my DSLR. I said, i will keep my fingers crossed and see what the HONOR 200 5G can do in terms of events photography.

I was surprised with the output of the HONOR 200 5G. Photos taken indoor lowlight during the event proper of the Contact Center Association of the Philippines wherein i was not able to get close to the stage because the place was full of attendees. So i had to zoom from a distance to be able to take these shots.
