Rotating Triple Camera with 48MP
Claiming to feature the world’s first rotating triple camera with 48MP, the Galaxy A80 “enables users to capture the world just as one sees it.”
The 48MP main camera offers vivid, high-quality images both in the day and at night, along with recording 4K UHD videos.
The Ultra-Wide angle lens with a 123-degree field of vision, which can be used for both front and rear, helps capture super slow-mo and ultra-wide photos and videos.
The Galaxy A80’s 3D Depth camera allows users to capture both Live Focus photos and videos.
The Super Steady mode reduces video shake so as to offer smooth and effortless capturing of content.
The camera setup also contains intelligent camera features to provide the perfect shot, such as Scene Optimizer that can recognize and boost up to 30 scenes, and Flaw Detection that can automatically identify glitches even before the picture is captured.
In the selfie mode, the triple camera setup slides up and rotates, and the same set of cameras are also put to use in this mode, thereby maintaining content quality.
