Vivo X200 Pro video and new sample photos reveal how far the sharp eye of the 200 MP Zeiss zoom camera reaches
The launch of the Vivo X200 series in China is just one weekend away, which will consist of three models right from the start and is likely to be launched globally earlier than ever before. In addition to the Vivo X200 and the Vivo X200 Pro Mini, which should be particularly interesting for fans of more compact smartphones, the Vivo X200 Pro will be a particularly exciting candidate for fans of high-quality smartphone cameras, as it features the same ISOCELL HP9 sensor that made its debut in the China-exclusive Vivo X100 Ultra as the first 200 MP telephoto.
At 1/1.4 inches, this is not only the sensor with the most megapixels in a smartphone telephoto, but also the largest to date, which definitely promises better quality for zoom shots, even in less than ideal lighting conditions. Vivo has just published the promo video below on its Weibo platform, which is intended to demonstrate justs how far the Vivo X200 Pro zoom camera's eye can reach, although the maximum possible magnification of 100x is likely to result in pixel mash.
New camera sample photos demonstrate zoom quality
At 20x to 30x zoom, however, Vivo's improved AI zoom algorithms, the telephoto macro function and the Zeiss Vario APO Sonnar lens still produce more or less acceptable results. The new sample photos published on Weibo below supposedly demonstrate this:
1/1.28-inch Sony LYT-818 replaces 1-inch sensor
On paper, the new 50 MP Lytia 818 sensor from Sony is a downgrade. At 1/1.28 inches, it no longer quite reaches the 1-inch format of the Sony IMX989 in the main camera of the Vivo X100 Pro. But this is compensated for by a significantly larger F/1.57 aperture (compared to F/1.8 in the predecessor) as well as improved sensor properties such as a higher 86dB dynamic range, lower 0.95e noise level and, above all, significantly improved HDR support. Incidentally, this sensor is also used in the Vivo X200 Pro Mini, albeit combined with a slightly smaller 50 MP telephoto.
