The tentative name “Xperia 1 VI” is expected to be released around spring as Sony’s premium flagship in 2024.
It is rumored that there will be major evolutions and changes not only in the naming rules and design language of the model, but also in terms of specifications.
Reliable information regarding the specifications around the camera of the new Xperia has been leaked.
Although names such as Sony and Xperia are not mentioned, Exmor-T is a mobile sensor for Sony’s Xperia, so at this point it is certain that this camera specification is for the next generation Xperia. Masu.
The contents include:
Exmor T 1/1.4 48M 1.12μm Full Pixel Dual PD AF + 24mm with 2x ISZ (48mm)
Exmor T 1/2.7 48M 0.6μm 2×2 on-chip lens AF + 14-18mm
Exmor T 1/2.7 48M 0.6μm 2×2 on-chip lens AF + 70-135mm with 2x ISZ (270mm)The main camera is as usual, ultra-wide enhanced 1080p video EIS enhanced, periscope telephoto 70-105mm → 85-125mm → 70-135mm
First of all, in the Xperia 1 V, the Exmor-T sensor, which was only used in the standard camera, is now used in both the ultra-wide-angle and telephoto camera sensors.All three cameras will be Exmor-T sensorsThat’s what he said.
Also, in line with thisThe number of pixels of sensors other than the main sensor has also been increased from 12MP to 48MP.Therefore, it seems possible that the telephoto and ultra-wide-angle sensors are the same.
It is currently unclear whether the two sensors will be the same “two-layer transistor pixel stack type” as the main sensor.
In any case, the use of Exmor-T sensors in the telephoto and ultra-wide-angle cameras and the increase in pixel count to 48MP seem to be major upgrades.
However, what I am a little concerned about is the sensor “size.” Telephoto lenses have increased in size from 1/3.5 inch to 1/2.7 inch.The standard camera sensor is slightly smaller from 1/1.35 inch to 1/1.4 inch, and the ultra-wide angle is from 1/2.5 inch to 1/2.7 inch.doing.
Regarding the telephoto camera, the focal length range has been expanded from 85-125mm on the Xperia 1 V to 70-135mm.The minimum zoom magnification is 3.5x → 2.9x, and the highest is 5.2x → 5.6x.Wide zoom rangeIt will be.
