Capturing sharp photography in motion is challenging; doing it on a rollercoaster moving at 97 km/h requires flagship-tier hardware. During a visit to Shanghai Disneyland, actress Anne Curtis and celebrity photographer BJ Pascual put the new vivo X300 Ultra to the test on the TRON Lightcycle / Power Run.

Flagship Telephoto Performance at High Speeds

Using its 200MP 85mm ZEISS Gimbal-Grade APO Telephoto Camera, the vivo X300 Ultra locked focus on Anne and BJ despite the extreme speed and dynamic lighting of the indoor-outdoor coaster.

  • Camera Settings Used: 85mm focal length, f/2.67 aperture, 1/200s shutter speed, ISO 50
  • Stabilization: 3° Gimbal-Grade Optical Image Stabilization (OIS)
  • Tracking: 60 fps Autofocus (AF) Tracking

The 85mm focal length allowed the camera to isolate facial expressions—capturing the adrenaline, laughter, and candid reactions without motion blur. The combination of hardware-level gimbal stabilization and continuous 60 fps tracking kept the fast-moving subjects centered and sharp throughout the high-G turns.

Why the vivo X300 Ultra Excels at Motion Photography

  • Ultra-High Resolution: The 200MP sensor preserves fine facial details and texture even with significant digital cropping.
  • Gimbal-Grade OIS: Compensates for heavy hand shake and ride turbulence better than standard lens-shift stabilization.
  • Instantaneous Autofocus: Tracks erratic, high-speed motion in real time to eliminate shutter lag.
