Superior Auto. Superior photos.
From illuminated night views to close-up macro photos, Superior Auto recognises up to 52 scenarios and automatically adjusts the settings for the best photos anywhere, any time.
HDR for photo and video – great shots, even when backlit
By capturing the same image at different exposure levels and layering them, HDR (High Dynamic Range) mode enables you to capture clear photos even against a strong backlight. HDR for video has a similar effect, allowing you to capture great footage even in high contrast situations.
Exmor RS™ for mobile – stunning shots in any light
Exmor RS™ for mobile is an evolution of the same image sensor technology used in Sony cameras. We’ve used this heritage to create a smartphone camera that takes highly detailed shots with low noise, vivid colours and stunning clarity – even in challenging light conditions.
