Chinese phonemaker Vivo has been pushing the limits of smartphone photography in the last few years. However, the availability of its phones \u2014 like last year\u2019s X200 Ultra, with its beefy add-on telephoto \u2014 has been intermittent in the West.<\/p>\n
The company says the X300 Ultra its first global flagship launch, although there\u2019s still no word on a US launch or pricing at the time of writing. Like the latest phones from Xiaomi and Oppo, Vivo is also obsessing over larger camera sensors, peripherals and a dizzying array of technical photography specs, with a particular focus on cinematic video recording.<\/p>\n
Collaborating with Zeiss again, the X300 Ultra features a \u201ctriple prime lens\u201d camera system with 85, 35 and 14mm equivalent focal lengths. This can be punched up to 400mm equivalent with a new telephoto extender, the messily-named Zeiss Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra, whose price is also unknown for now.<\/p>\n
Even without that add-on, Vivo has built its 85mm equivalent 200-megapixel telephoto camera to handle most of your zoom-heavy shooting moments. A \u201cgimbal-grade\u201d APO (apochromatic) camera is designed to correct color fringing and stabilize your shots. These are both typical issues when using higher zoom levels. In a dedicated \u201csnapshot\u201d mode, Autofocus tracking will even work at 60 fps, which I\u2019m excited to test, as the phone can also shoot at up to 12 fps. Vivo says its optical image stabilization can correct up to three degrees of movement.<\/p>\n
Other cameras are similarly powerful, spec-wise. The 35mm equivalent Zeiss \u201cDocumentary\u201d camera uses a 1\/1.12-inch 200MP Sony sensor and is apparently engineered for strong low-light performance and portrait shooting, with an f\/1.8 aperture. Finally, there\u2019s a 50MP ultrawide rounding out the camera lineup.<\/p>\n
All three rear cameras support up to 4K 120fps 10-bit log video and the same in Dolby Vision. Vivo says the X300 Ultra will capture \u201cfilm-like\u201d color performance without the need for editing. If you want to dig into editing, however, it supports 10-bit log video for more dynamic range and color depth.<\/p>\n
Vivo is going hard on video capture. The X300 Ultra’s new \u201cpro video mode” has an upgraded monitoring feature that supports users\u2019 custom LUTs, showing a real-time preview of how it will look while recording in log. Vivo\u2019s log format is also compatible with ACES workflow, making it easier to integrate the X300 Ultra alongside other cinema cameras.<\/p>\n\n
