Premium cameras with ZEISS optics

Let’s discuss one of the X70 5G’s main features, the camera system co-engineered with ZEISS. If you’re not familiar, ZEISS or Carl Zeiss AG is a German manufacturer of optical systems. Its optics are used in cameras, mobile phones, sports optics, binoculars, medical solutions, and microscopes. Is collaboration with vivo ensures that its cameras are getting the high-quality optics ZEISS Is known for. In the case of the X70 5G, it uses the ZEISS T* Coating, which reduces stray lights and ghosting effects for more accurate colors.

For the camera specs, it has a 40MP main, 12MP ultra-wide, and 12MP portrait lenses. The main camera uses a bespoke Sony IMX766V sensor with vivo’s Gimbal Stabilization 3.0 to help users capture clear shots in the dark without the blur, enabling features like Real-Time Extreme Night Vision and Super Night Video. And for the front camera, we have a 32MP shooter for high-quality selfies vivo is known for.

Like taking shots of your subjects with blurred backgrounds? The X70 5G can handle that with its 12MP portrait camera that comes with a 50mm equivalent focal length. This also enables the ZEISS Style Portrait effects that simulate the effect of four legendary ZEISS lenses: Distagon, Planar, Sonnar, and Biotar.
