OPPO 10x Hybrid Optical Zoom Camera
For this camera technology, OPPO uses three-camera solution that includes a Super Wide Angle, Ultra Clear main sensor and a Telephoto lens. The three cameras work together to maximize their respective advantages, achieve better imaging quality in different zoom zones and achieve 10x zoom. OPPO has used OIS for standard and telephoto cameras.
The ultra wide-angle camera has an equivalent focal length of 15.9mm, which provides wide-angle shots and the ultra-clear main camera that ensures clear photos and the telephoto camera offers 159mm equivalent focal length. In addition to triple cameras, OPPO has also used a hidden camera that is also key in achieving 10x hybrid optical zoom.
The periscope structure that was first introduced with 5X optical zoom camera back at the MWC 2017 makes full use of the width and thickness of the phone through the lateral arrangement and refraction of the lens set.
