realme Launches World’s First Ever Camera Features on Smartphone

Trendsetting photography features revealed at Camera Innovation Event

realme, the world’s fastest-growing smartphone brand, recently revealed trendsetting photography features in its upcoming realme 8 series during a virtual live-streaming Camera Innovation Event. With sharper photo quality, the world’s first tilt-shift time-lapse video and starry time-lapse video and new portrait filters, the realme 8 series will set the benchmark in the smartphone industry, providing a leap-forward camera experience to all young users.

108MP Sensor with In-sensor zoom
The realme 8 Pro adopts the latest generation of Samsung 108MP sensor HM2 as the primary camera, featuring 12000 x 9000 pixels and a large sensor size of 1/1.52″. Thanks to the advanced technology, the phone’s 3x mode will activate a new In-sensor Zoom where the phone will take eight 12MP photos in a row and then input them into the clarity enhancement algorithm to further increase the image clarity, which is clearer than an optical telephoto lens.

New Starry Mode with time-lapse video
In the new Starry Mode, realme also launched the world’s first Starry Time-lapse Video on smartphones. Starry time-lapse videos are usually realized by shooting multiple clips via professional cameras, and then synthesizing and combining these clips by a computer through video editing software.

realme also came up with an exclusive time-lapse video algorithm based on starry photos. It will take 480s to shoot 30 photos and then generate a 1s time-lapse video, which means the time-lapse mode can show the perpetual changing universes at 480 times faster speed.

Tilt-shift photography algorithm
Tilt-shift photography is achieved with the help of expensive tilt-shift lenses, which can make only a part of the photo appear clear and keep all other parts out of focus to create a sense of a miniature world. With realme’s new tilt-shift photography algorithm, realme 8 series is able to take tilt-shift photos as well as 10x faster tilt-shift time-lapse video, presenting the world in a fantastic and unique way. realme 8 Pro is also the world’s first smartphone that features tilt-shift time-lapse video.

Trendy portrait filters
Most smartphones nowadays take portrait shots featuring a standard bokeh effect in the background. realme, as a trendsetting technology brand, added something more to portrait photography as well. This time in realme 8 series, realme provides three iconic filters, Neon Portrait, Dynamic Bokeh Portrait, and AI Color Portrait to make every portrait trendier.
