As if the iPhone camera technology was not already reigning supreme in the global tech market, the company has come up with more revolutionary developments in this regard.
The tech giant claims to have made some radical improvements to its cameras which it feels could be a game-changer for the future of its iPhones.
This year, users will be welcomed to a new range of the iPhone 14 series that is boasting of some serious camera upgrades. But if you think they’re stopping there, well, think again.
The company surely has some more great developments in the making that have been disclosed via a recent patent application. This comprises a unique telephoto lens that can produce enhanced zoom capabilities.
Recently picked up thanks to experts at PatentlyApple, we’re seeing some interesting facts come into the spotlight like details regarding the new and improved telephoto lens that’s folded. Additionally, the new lens will comprise a uniquely shaped single prism variant.
For those who might not be aware, folded lenses usually make use of intricately designed prism systems, compounded with mirrors that reroute light in a more sideways direction within the same smartphone device’s interface.
But when you’ve got light passing through numerous optical points, this just might cause a noteworthy decline in image quality. Keeping in mind Apple’s great experience in this regard, we know the tech giant has plenty of tricks up its sleeve to tackle this.
For instance, the new prism design can actually produce different reflective surface configurations with some aperture masks too. And when combined with the anti-reflective properties, there’s no reason why we can’t see Apple producing its desired image quality results.
Keeping in mind how telephoto lenses aren’t the easiest to master, thanks to their tiny size, high costs, and infamous difficulty of design- we know Apple has plenty of research to do in this regard. After all, such features are only set aside for flagship goods.
News of this kind means Apple is keen on bettering its already competitive zoom camera technology. And with some of the best optical features in the industry, it's definitely worth a little anticipation as to what users could expect next in terms of brilliant image results.
For now, we’re just celebrating with Apple because the thought of cameras getting better is always welcomed.
