Camera<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nOn the back, there are three cameras, although only the 50MP primary camera<\/strong> is useful. The other two are the macro and B&W cameras, both of which are 2MP. Realme should have given an ultrawide camera instead of the macro and B&W cameras.<\/p>\nNORMAL PHOTOS<\/strong><\/p>\nThe phone captures 12MP images by default. I like the colours of the photos the main camera takes. The device struggles to maintain the highlight and the shadow, but the overall image looks pleasing.<\/p>\n
But when it comes to taking photos of a person, the skin tone appears reddish and the person is also not exposed properly. It, for some reason, under-exposes the person, resulting in a dark image.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\nPhotos taken in 50MP mode have comparatively better details and clarity, but the photo consistently comes out darker than the 12MP photos.<\/p>\n

NIGHT PHOTOS<\/strong><\/p>\nFor the price, the night photos are good. Taking photos in Night mode exposes the photo better. The details are also good.<\/p>\n
Moving subjects, however, appear blurry, as they do on any other phone. I am satisfied with the overall low-light images it takes.<\/p>\n

PORTRAIT PHOTOS<\/strong><\/p>\nThe Portrait mode on the Realme Narzo 50 is a complete letdown.<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\nTaking portraits in default mode alone was unimpressive. The Portrait mode is even disappointing as it makes the photo even darker and skin tone reddish.<\/p>\n
It’s not that the camera is not capable of exposing the subject properly. Sometimes, it exposes the subject correctly, but the majority of times, the photos come out terrible.<\/p>\n
It underexposes the subject which makes the photos look very unnatural and dark. The update may fix this issue in the future, but for now, the phone’s portrait capability is a huge disappointment.<\/p>\n
The background blur is satisfactory. The edge detection does a decent job of separating the subject.<\/p>\n

MACRO PHOTOS<\/strong><\/p>\nThe macro photos are also not very useful. The macro photos lack good details and clarity. I suggest you use the main camera for those shots.<\/p>\n

FRONT CAMERA<\/strong><\/p>\nThe selfies are fine with good details. The skin tone appears slightly red at times, but the overall photos are great.<\/p>\n

VIDEO<\/strong><\/p>\nThe phone can shoot 1080p videos at 30 frames per second. Users can also shoot slow-motion videos in 1080p or 720p resolution. The video quality is average. It lacks good clarity and details.<\/p>\n
The exposure would occasionally fluctuate, which was annoying. The stabilisation is decent, but it catches footsteps. There is an option to use Ultra Steady mode, but I found it to be ineffective.<\/p>\n
