Nokia 9 has 5 cameras on the back

This gives me trypophobia

lel fuck you it looks better like this

cheap symmetry is for pussies

and obviously they had to put some cameras in pairs/as close as possible while others not so much

Because you can't make a better camera with just one camera, and we now have powerful CPUs to capture the image using all 5.
Simple physics - a single CMOS sensor can be say 50MP, but all that 50MP are packed onto a tiny space, and optical lens would only get you so far enhancing it with thickness limitations. So instead we would now have 5 10MP cameras combined into a single image. That means less pixels per one mm of space, but let's be honest, we don't really need cameras to zoom in as far as few kilometers, we just want good looking photos, that's a different task.

I don't trust it.

I believe Nokia licensed tech from them last year.

A few of them probably have different fixed optical zoom levels. Maybe multiple cameras would help with keeping things in focus, with each one setiting itself at a slightly different focal length/range, so that auto focus could just switch to a different camera that has something in focus when a camera is having a hard time focusing on something, then switch back to rapidly focus when you point the phone at something else. Its also possible that some of the sensors are more sensitive than others, taking better photos in low light but washing out when its bright, when a less sensitive sensor is used instead.

If I wanted to take artistic or professional photos using my phone I'd just get an interchangeable lens accessory camera for my phone, and stick it onto a tripod. But that's because I have the patience to test out all of a camera's functions and messing around with light, and wait for my subject to look how I want it to. This is for people who want to just take their phone, point it at anything, and have it look decent without having to actually learn anything, or wait.

Well... with 5 cameras you can make a really good HDR.
>--, -, normal, +, ++

>tfw your finger blocks three of the sensors but there's still two with a shot

it actually triggers me, its so fucking disgusting wtf. don't they check their products before launching them?

This actually intrigues me. It would keep the fucking normalies away from me. Is this phone notched?

>Just what the fuck were they thinking?
>"They can't cover them all!"

maybe...just maybe...it works better if it's not symmetrical

This actually excites me, its so fucking awesome wtf don't they love their products before selling them

Is there anything else that screams "hey look we fell for the meme"?

>used to be the largest mobile company in the world
>fell out of favour during smartphone erase
>makes a comeback after some time
>Literally does this
They never learn eh?

moar = better

this It's so you can have the entire field of view in focus at any given time.
Nokia probably thought better and realized they could do it in 5 cameras instead of fuckin' 16.
The gap is probably mostly covered in software. Machiiiiineee leeeaarrrninnngg

you can also do super-resolution with multiple cameras.
Microsoft simulates it by just moving the camera a bit but I'm sure you'll get some decent scaling with 5 cameras.

My god if you look at some of the cameras, they are pointed at the side, some are directly pointed to the side.

Packaging, probably. Here's what the inside looks like.

At first I thought that this was a pc case.
Wtf is that? A Flac player?

Portable media player, yeah. Don't look up the price; these days the only people buying these things are audiophiles with more money than sense.

fucking phones are too big. look at the size of that thing compared to his hand. just comical.

Imagine the image file size

Fucking cameras form a star of david.
All thebetter to spy on you goy

mirrors, see

They weren't

I feel uncomfortable looking at this

Spider marketshare.

Porn.
They were thinking about porn.

At least you would have 4 more cameras if one goes out.

>Nokia
>everything is written in chinese
The chinks are just trying to compensate for their squinty eyes that's all.

>don't just do 1 good sensor like old lumia one
>add back in camera bump

>hurr why wouldn't they use old inefficient technology instead of a new better one?

yeah just like canon, nikon, sony are all moving to 5 smaller sensors instead of 1 larger

Here's a quick math problem: what's going be the minimum camera size that uses five 80mm lens? Five 5mm lens?

Am I the only one who doesn't see anything wrong with this? Nokia has always pushed the barrier with quirky phone design and I think it actually looks kinda cool.

>x7.2 crop factor

>80mm lens = width of lens
>5 smaller sensors
>lens not smaller
>crop factor

but doesn't the spacing between the cameras make it so each has a slightly different angle and focal point? piecing that together sounds like a mess.

I'm not going to shit on the 5 camera design before I actually see any sample photos, but I do really wish Nokia had another shot at a Lumia 1020 / 808 PureView style phone with a single huge sensor.

>muh crop factor
Geometry says this argument is bollocks, what's your response to that?

That you're the dumbest cunt on this board tonight

On contrary. Even tiny phone camera is well beyond optical limits, using large lens or sensors is marketing dick waving, kind of like audiophile gear. By the way, smaller sensors with stronger light focus produce better picture, down to simple fact that they need hard exposure and increasing physical size reduces light flux, forcing to post-amplify the image along with the noise.

It's not meant to be a fully fledge consumer product. Its just to test bench their technology to have early adopters iron out the bugs for free. (Not including the purchase of the phone) It also serves as something journalist can write about.

So what exactly does this do?

>take 4 picture at different focal points
>recreate and mesh them to make one image
>50 percent battery lose

how do i become ultra-rich?

Go back in time, invest in AMD, buy into bitcoin, buy into eth, buy into Monero, buy rental properties, live on passive income.
If you haven't done any of that then buy a lotto ticket. Or take an equally risky gamble and pitch your start up idea to a VC firm and hope they're dumb enough to be fooled by your buzzwords.

that's where the "we have powerful CPUs now" part comes in play.

Not just powerful CPUs, we have dedicated DSPs for handling images. Distance between the sensors isn't necessarily a required factor, the DSP can compare images from different sensors and line them up to produce an accurate stitch.Combine things like pixel binning between them and you can one very large averaged image that looks surprisingly good.
What some of the bleeding edge DSPs can do is fucking ridiculous. 240fps and 480fps video on some of them is nothing, at good resolutions too. Even MediaTek was showing off 1080p 480fps slow mo back in the start of 2015, using an SoC taped out a year prior.
