Oppo teaser suggests it's developing a smartphone with a retractable-lens camera module

Or to eliminate the camera bump when not using the camera.

Built with slave labour?

Same thing happened in iPhone manufacturing.
'Poisoned' Chinese workers turn to Apple for help

Are camera/lens manufacturing in China/Thailand/Philippines ...? How their worker salary ?

My point is, I don't care about fancy technology as much as I care about knowing an entire race or religion isn't being enslaved.

Second the above comment, although it must be said that Sony, Apple, and indeed most electronics companies have been implicated in the use of Uighur compelled labor.

China is at war with the world, there hasn't been a gradual and significant ramp up of arms and establishment of new alliances between western nations as well as Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia etc. for no reason.

The misinformation & disinformation campaigns you've specifically searched for doesn't mean the contrary information I've linked to is incorrect, it just shows your typical sources.

You're probably also one of the many that wouldn't dare suggest that China, Wuhan specifically, was the source of the latest bio weapon that has killed millions and inflicted trillions of dollars of damage for the global economy, right?

I would suggest to use some critical thinking and broaden your sources.

You don't speak for Malaysians, you speak for yourself.

I have friends in KL that do not agree with you and see the actions which don't gel with the rhetoric.

You will see china attempt to do to Taiwan what it did to HK, that's when, hopefully, you'll see dozens of countries finally push back, let's hope it isn't Japan 2.0.

I like the Chinese, I dislike the current administration.

I am Chinese and i assure you, what happen in CCP China is worse that people in the west can possibly imagine
just horrible !

Also stop the myth that all Chines support CCP wich cause lots of unfair dicrimination
some Chinese from China and almost all Chinese from Taiwan and HK hate CCP
They are being unfairly discriminated because of CCP
Against CCP is not at all related to racial discrimination !

who are u trying to fool?
u are saying all Muslim countries support CCP detaining 1 million people in Xinjiang concentration camp ?
no decent human being will support that !

you are absolutely right !
"China, Wuhan specifically, was the source of the latest bio weapon that has killed millions and inflicted trillions of dollars of damage"

Malaysian support CCP? what nationality is 黃明志 ? (Wee Meng Chee)
He is a famous pop singer from Malaysia that make a massively populat hit song against CCP
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namewee
"Wee has since been banned in Mainland China as a result of the song and music video "Fragile" (Chinese:玻璃心)which went viral in October 2021"

CCP is an oppressive government, i am not hating my own race !
if u ask almost any Chinese from Hong Kong and Taiwan, u will get the same opinion as me
expatriate to China? u are those that cooperate with CCP to benefit from the suffering of Chinese people
Chinese from Taiwan and HK know CCP very well. In 2019 the whole world see HK people rise up and fight CCP but unfortunately fail. We don't have weapons so can now live under oppression

@Pseu_Pseu_Pseudonym
thanks but i now live in the WesT so i am safe. If not i will not say i word. I believe there are a lots of Chinese living in mainland China that hate CCP but are afraid to speak out. Therefore giving the false impression that people in China support CCP
if people are afraid to speak out not indication of an oppressive government, i don't know what is

those so called "Blue camp" in HK are people migrate from mainland China to HK. After 1997, CCP move more than 1 million mainland Chinese to HK, trying to replace the local HK people. This cause a massive housing crisis and many local hk people are forced to live in horrible place. But at the same time, those people that migrate from China are given free luxury public house that would cost millions to purchase. CCP take away the right of local HK people to live in a decent place
stop talking about HK as if u know what is happening, u know nothing about the suffering of real locally born HK people

Simpler option: add a standardized magnetic lens mount that goes over one or more of the cameras. There are plenty of good lenses available, but the mounts require a specific case.

Already done with the CM-1.

Cough, Cough Apple Iphone vs CISCO Iphone

Yeah, I feel sorry for Aiphone which sounds like a bad copy while they've been in business for 70 years.

forest dream,
Have a look at the video and you'll notice the lens extension time is closer to 5s than 0.5 s...

It just a unfinished prototype, so slow. Hope final product not slow.
History of Sony Xperia 1 (which require few seconds before can review captured photo) told us few seconds delay is unacceptable.

If that is an actual 50mm not 50mm equivalent then on that sensor size it would be about a 200mm field of view. This looks possible given the details on the lens.

To confuse you this is not actually referring to inch. On a 1" sensor nothing is an inch. It's just marketing.

A 1" sensor is 8.8mm tall, 13.2mm wide and has a diagonal of 15.86mm

An inch should be 25.4mm

TLDR: Roughly 8mm x 6mm (48mm^2)

The 1/1.56" nomenclature is a confusing relic of video camera days... and doesn't actually represent any direct dimension of sensor. Rather it represents the external diameter of the 1950 era vidicon tube such a sensor would replace.

It's an archaic and unhelpful size typing system... and I see that Apple/Samsung phones no longer say that that they had it was 1/1.65"-type sensor 1/1.31"-type sensor this year. Rather they just give the megapixels and pitch width.

So for the Samsung GN1 sensor you know that the it is 8160 x 6144... with a pixel width of 1.2um ... multiple that out and you get a surface area of 72mm^2 on the Google Pixel 6 (iPhone 13 has one about 35mm^2).

Very informative replies. I'm wholly in favor of moving to a square-millimeter based sensor measuring approach.

Camera and phone industry, please follow 🙏

I whole-hearted endorse this.
