OPPO leads in revolutionizing portrait photography, especially with its Reno Series, demonstrating the evolution in smartphone portraits. The series enjoys widespread trust among over 70 million users in 60 countries, appealing to a range from hobbyists to professional photographers.
The series emphasizes not just zoom capabilities but also offers a unique perspective in portraits through telephoto cameras. These cameras allow for closer shots without intruding personal space and utilize spatial compression to enhance backgrounds, creating more impactful portraits with less distortion and a feeling of intimacy. Professionals often prefer lenses around 50mm to 85mm for their natural perspective and minimal distortion, qualities the Reno Series emulates, particularly from the Reno10 onwards with its Telephoto Portrait Camera.
The introduction of the 47mm Telephoto Portrait Camera in the Reno10 Series, closely mimicking the beloved 50mm lens, enables distortion-free portraits and adjustable bokeh effects, akin to DSLR quality. The Reno10 also featured a collaboration with Sony on the 32MP IMX709 sensor, offering superior image quality.
Continuing this trend, the Reno11 Series introduced the Ultra-Clear Portrait Camera System, with both models sporting high-resolution cameras and the Reno11 Pro enhancing portraits further with OPPO’s HyperTone Imaging Engine. This engine improves images’ clarity, dynamic range, and color, achieving professional-grade photography.
OPPO also collaborates with professional photographers worldwide to refine the portrait experience, culminating in the OPPO Portrait Expert Engine. The Reno11 Pro offers a new Portrait Mode and AI Portrait Retouching, capturing diverse skin tones and expressions. It provides two focal lengths for portraits, ensuring versatility in capturing scenes and subjects.
According to Fredrique Achieng, PR Manager at OPPO Kenya, the combination of advanced hardware and software in the Reno11 Series allows for stunning portraits for all skill levels. The Reno11 Series is available for purchase in OPPO stores and online, with the Reno11 5G and Reno11 Pro 5G priced at KES 67,999 and KES 85,999, respectively.
