How to use selective focus on photos with the Samsung Galaxy S7
The Galaxy S7 features a selective focus feature that lets you take blurred background photos, similar to the portrait mode of the iPhone 7 Plus, but with an added touch. Samsung's cell phone can not only identify the background to focus on the next object, but also do the reverse - that is, capture the background of the image neatly.
In addition, the smartphone photographs and then the user chooses the best picture. See, in the walkthrough of this tutorial, how to access and enable the function to have professional-looking photos.

Step 5. Touch "Focus Far" to see the second option, which blurs the foreground and leaves the background clear. From this, you have two options: save and stay with the second version only, or save as new to get the two images in the gallery.

It is worth remembering that the blur feature uses only software features to identify the depth of the image and apply the effect. The trend is that dual-camera devices, such as Galaxy Note 8, are more efficient using a similar function.
