Even though the competition is always further ahead, Sony does not give up its smartphone segment yet. The Japanese now have their latest project up their sleeve with the Xperia PRO-I. At first glance, this is not just a conventional smartphone. Rather, a smartphone seems to merge with a professional camera. Can Sony win the hearts of passionate and professional photographers and videographers and regain a foothold in the market?<\/p>\n

Sony has found its target group<\/h2>\n

Let’s not kid ourselves. The smartphone market is arguably one of the most competitive in the entire tech industry. To compete against Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei, Apple and Co. is almost impossible. This is especially true once you have lost the connection. Sony seems to have met this fate for quite some time. However, the Japanese still do not want to give up their smartphone segment and launch new devices on the market at regular intervals. Unlike many other companies from the Far East, the company does not focus on a price war with cheaper and cheaper devices. Instead, they obviously want to secure a very specific target group – photographers and videographers.<\/p>\n

This is made clear by the presentation of the Xperia PRO-I. This somewhat different smartphone is scheduled to go on sale this December and should more than please at least friends of pretty photos. Sony once again collaborates with the experts from the traditional company Zeiss for its hybrid of smartphone and camera. Together with the German lens developers, Sony has developed a triple camera for the Xperia PRO-I that should be quite something. In addition to a main camera, the triple lens also houses an ultra-wide-angle camera and a dual telephoto lens.<\/p>\n

Focus is on image quality<\/h2>\n

Even though the pure resolution of the three cameras with „only“ 12 megapixels does not really read well from a layman’s point of view, it is worth taking a look at the fine print here. After all, Sony relies on a Tessar-T lens from Zeiss for the main camera, which is supposed to be particularly expansive. In combination with the one-inch chip, whose sensor is roughly the same as Sony’s compact camera RX100 VII, pixels with a size of 2.4 micrometers should be possible. The Japanese hope to be able to collect enough light for beautiful final results even in low light conditions with this camera technology. Meanwhile, the aperture of the triple camera is variable and should be able to offer a switching function between the focal lengths f\/2.0 and f\/4.0. Photo professionals will be pleased to know that the Xperia PRO-I can not only shoot JPEGs, but also 12-bit RAW photos.<\/p>
