Chinese smartphone maker Tecno has announced a new Telescopic Macro Lens tech that has the ability to extend from the body of the phone, helping improve the quality of macro images and the ease of taking them.
The official teaser video shows a proxy phone with a retractable lens. The lens, when extended, will allow a user to shoot pictures of a subject without the need for getting perilously close, which makes it quite ideal for wild stuff like snapping the scales of your favorite snake.
The company claims that the end result is comparable to that of the main camera and that the macro lens is capable of 5x optical zoom. A bigger aperture is also offered, allowing for better low-light performance.
And last but not least, Tecno has said that the design is quite compact and doesn’t need too much space, although specifics were not provided.
Of course, the phone featured in the video is nothing but a dummy that exists only in video, designed to show off the Telescopic Macro Lens tech. It is unclear when Tecno will be launching a phone with the same.
OPPO had teased a similar technology last month, except it had actually shown a phone with it in action. While the company hadn’t talked about its purpose at the time, it looks to be trying to achieve something akin to the tech from Tecno.
