Galaxy S24 Ultra to reportedly keep 100x digital zoom despite downgraded periscope lens\u060c<\/p>\n

The first question you might ask is why would Samsung switch from 10x optical zoom to 5x for the periscope lens of the Galaxy S24 Ultra<\/span>. Ironically, the answer comes from Jon McCormack, Apple’s vice president of camera software engineering. You may remember that in the article we wrote about the iPhone 15 Pro Max’s Tetraprism lens, we noted that McCormack said Apple was limiting the optical zoom to 5x due to the inability to keep the camera<\/a> stabilized at 10x optical zoom. He added: “If you look at the 10x zoom, unless you have the steadiest hands in the world or a tripod, it’s really difficult to use.”<\/div>\n
With the removal of the 10x optical zoom on the Galaxy S24<\/a> Ultra<\/span>, Samsung will be able to offer users more stabilization. And through the use of software tricks, Samsung will still be able to provide 100x digital zoom on the Galaxy S24 Ultra<\/span> although the degraded capabilities of the periscope lens, going from 10x optical zoom to 5x optical zoom, mean that more of the heavy lifting will come from the digital side of the equation.

That Samsung can continue to offer 100x digital zoom even with the new camera setup shouldn’t be too surprising. As a tipster @RGcloudS<\/a> Rated out of 5x. Again, it all depends on the software used.<\/div>\n
