OPPO is preparing a real revolution in the history of smartphones when it comes to cameras, and new details about the Find X10 Ultra and Find X10 Pro Max models reveal very ambitious plans. The Find X10 Pro Max, which could become the first phone with as many as three 200 MP rear cameras, attracts special attention.
According to new information, the Find X10 Pro Max will use a 200 MP main camera with a large 1/1.3 sensor, a 200 MP periscope telephoto camera with a 1/1.28 sensor, and a 200 MP ultra-wide camera with a 1/1.56 sensor.
If these specs prove to be true, it would represent the largest ultra-wide sensor ever seen in a single phone. Great focus was also placed on the new LOFIC technology, which should significantly improve the dynamic range of photos.
OPPO is entering a whole new era of mobile photography
Unlike conventional sensors that lose detail when a pixel receives too much light, LOFIC uses an additional side capacitor that temporarily stores excess electrical charge instead of discarding it. Practically, the camera can retain much more detail in the very bright parts of the photo without relying on aggressive HDR software and stitching together multiple exposures.
This will result in more natural photos with better details in real photography conditions, especially in very demanding scenes with a strong contrast of light and shadows.
OPPO is also reportedly preparing a very unusual 100 MP front camera with a square 1:1 sensor. The idea behind it is that the same frame can be much more easily adapted to different formats for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and other social networks without a great loss of detail when cropping the photo. The high resolution allows for aggressive cropping while maintaining a high level of detail.
The fact that all three rear cameras on the Pro Max model would use the same 200 MP resolution seems particularly interesting, which could significantly improve the quality of digital zoom at high magnifications such as 30x and 50x.
OPPO is apparently trying to move mobile photography far beyond the classic marketing of megapixels and shift the focus to the real problems of photographing in demanding lighting conditions, reports Gizmochina.
