JAKARTA - Samsung doesn't seem quite satisfied with placing four cameras on the back of its cellphone. Now, the smartphone manufacturer from South Korea is reported to have patented a cellphone with six rear cameras.
Launching from Tom's Guide, reports have circulated that Samsung will embed the six camera lenses on its latest device, which is called the Galaxy S30. The company has also registered a patent with the World Intellectual Property Office (WIPO), since December 2019.
As for the patent design, this smartphone uses a configuration of five wide-angle camera sensors with a focal length of 28mm and a telephoto lens. The placement of these cameras is arranged horizontally with three lenses in each column plus one LED Flash.
Not only does it have a lot of camera sensors on the successor smartphone to the Galaxy S20. Samsung also added a feature that is no less interesting, namely that each camera sensor can be moved and tilted separately.
This capability is based on a patent entitled "Apparatus and method for operating multiple cameras for digital photography," wrote Samsung as reported by LetsGoDigital.
That means that each camera on the Galaxy S30 can look in a different direction than the other, or where the user focuses on an image or object. This allows the user of this phone to get a wider panoramic shot without having to move the smartphone.
It is believed, the camera lens technology embedded in the Galaxy S30 will have a higher focal length, so the ability to take photos in low light conditions is better. The image yield in HDR mode will also increase quite drastically with the addition of more lenses and camera sensors than before.
Unfortunately, until now, it is not known whether Samsung will actually embody the six rear camera patent design in its latest product. Even if this is realized, of course the price of the Galaxy S30 device will be very expensive.
Before Samsung, many smartphone manufacturers started to embed four cameras behind their devices. Even the Nokia 9 PureView, has already used its five rear camera configuration.
