OPPO has launched the 10x Hybrid Optical zooming tech on 16th Jan 2019.
Have you ever thought of getting a clear vision of
A bird sitting on the top of street light ?
or The face of person on the ground when you're on the roof top ?
This all is going to become true with 10x optical zoom that is coming to our smartphones with courtesy of OPPO's hard work.
What a delight is there to watch distant object without moving from our place or without going near to an object such as bird which may fly away with fear. This all have been brought to users with DSLRs which can do a very large amount of zooming but has to pay a price of being hefty and large to carry also being too expensive.
OPPO is a brand which makes trend and thus have been working very hard to bring this tech to our smartphones. They had brought it in the past with 5x Optical zooming which was prototyped in the Feb, MWC 2017. At that time no other brand had ever thought about the optical zooming to such a large extent in a small device such as mobile phones.
This 5x Optical zoom tech used is just 5.7mm thin. The tech uses a periscope-style setup to divert light through a prism and into a telephoto lens nested inside the smartphone, set at a 90-degree angle to the rear-facing wide-angle lens. By shifting the light's path, OPPO is able to achieve a lossless 5x zoom even within the confines of a thin smartphone. Also used a periscope-style setup which is a first of its type and also this mechanism uses OIS which helps to protect from jitters while taking images with shaky hands. You people may know that when you shoot with any sort of magnification, even slight vibrations become more noticeable, especially when shooting a video. OPPO tackles this with a new optical image stabilization system (OIS). The prism mechanism dynamically adjusts it's angle with precision to the thousandth of a degree or 0.0025 degrees to be more accurate. Also, this tech provides lossless zooming in the images with a fast focus even when fully 5x zoomed.
Here are a few samples of images taken with 5x Optical zooming camera. See the amount of clarity in the images after zooming.
Now 2 years have passed since then and no device with the tech came in the market but hope never dies and following the same trend, OPPO has launched the 10x Hybrid Optical zooming tech on 16th Jan 2019.
The 10x zooming tech had been showcased in the event by OPPO. The tech has achieved this immense level of power by combining the previously released 5x optical zooming sensor with a wide angle lens, which combines and helps to achieve 10x times zoom. There is also a 3rd module this time for capturing regular pics in the middle but this one has no interference with the zoom tech. The modules cover the 35mm equivalent result of 15.9-159mm focal length.
This new and updated 10x module has Dual OIS image stabilization for the both main camera and the telephoto lens. Hence, the pics and videos will be stabilized, that's a great thing as these small aspects make a good achievement to an excellent achievement.
The setup has been manufactured with over 100+ R&D patents and was drop tested 28000 times. Also waiting anxiously for the MWC Barcelona, where the tech will be showcased on prototype device.
Another great thing is that OPPO has promised that thi time the tech will reach the manufacturing markets soon. We are hoping for it to be released with the latest flagship by OPPO which is to hit markets soon with the latest SOC 855.
