These days, camera phones and high-end DSLRs are neck-and-neck in terms of software enhancements. So it is only expected from Apple to include a whole range of camera effects to the new iPhone 8 Plus.

Along with the raved portrait mode feature introduced last year in beta with iPhone 7 Plus, four cool lighting settings are offered as part of iPhone 8 Plus' new feature Portrait Lighting - a camera mode that utilises the dual-camera system to adjust lighting around your subject for the different effects. Facial landmarking technology plays a huge role as the effects revolve around the detection of human features.

At Singtel's exclusive launch of the new iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, we manged to play around with the new lighting effects and here are the results:

Contour Light

Perhaps inspired by the iconic makeup technique of contouring, Apple introduces Contour Light which makes your cheekbones pop! The cool effect accentuates shadows and highlights on your subject’s face, giving it a more defined and sculptured look sans Kim Kardashian’s beauty contour kit.
