Samsung aims to improve smartphone photography with advanced telephoto lenses
In the world of high-end smartphones, Samsung is always looking for new ways to improve the photography experience for users. With this in mind, the company is currently taking an important step in developing smartphone lenses, as it seeks to transform the telephoto units found in phones into a second main lens.
Current telephoto lenses on smartphones often suffer from small size and low resolution, which results in sub-optimal images and makes things worse with features like HDR and video frame rates. In contrast, the primary lens on a phone is better quality and has higher resolution. But with the development of Samsung’s 200MP sensors like the ISOCELL HP2 and ISOCELL HP3, the company can now turn the telephoto unit into a second primary lens.
These sensors come with 2x and 4x zoom capabilities and 12.5MP resolution, which means they offer similar resolution to the main lens. To solve the resolution problem in telephoto lenses, these sensors use the Remosaic deep learning algorithm, which maintains resolution at different zoom levels.
It is worth noting that this improvement is not only in resolution but also in image quality, as the two sensors improve details and the Bokeh effect that can be important in photography. In addition, the use of telephoto lenses in portrait photography helps in providing better images of people.
This technological step shows Samsung's superiority in developing smartphone camera technology and indicates the company's commitment to improving the user experience in the field of photography. This improvement seems to make Samsung smartphones more competitive and attractive to consumers.
