But with the changing situation they are forced to think on this aspect. The modern generation is more picture oriented and is inclined to click selfie anywhere at any lighting conditions. So to cater to these demands the companies are coming up with cameras that can click better crystal clear picture in the dark even. With Low Light Photography and Night Mode features in the devices.
