Samsung has announced the 50MP ISOCELL GNK sensor, which offers better video capability and dynamic range.
Samsung unveiled the 50MP ISOCELL GNK sensor, which offers a broader dynamic range for still images and enhanced video recording capabilities. The sensor is a straight replacement for the commonly used 50MP ISOCELL GN1 by Samsung and other OEMs.
Specifications-wise, the GNK and GN1 are the same. The 50MP imager has 1.2µm pixels and measures 1/1.3". But the business employed further cunning to enhance the sensor's functionality. For example, the Dual Pixel Pro autofocus considerably improves the focus time, ensuring crisp photos of moving objects.
Furthermore, the sensor can record pictures with a dynamic range of up to 120 dB, and the GNK may record pictures in Pro mode. RAW photos in 14 bits. The GNK operates in three distinct ISO modes, each of which helps to minimize motion artifacts and produce such a broad dynamic range.
The sensor can capture 8K 30 frames per second videos without significantly reducing field of view when it comes to video recording. FHD video at 240 frames per second and HDR videos are also supported.
Although Samsung hasn't said which phones would have the new sensor initially, the first phones to use the ISOCELL GNK are probably going to be released in 2019.
