It is called IMX586 and has 48MP, each of them only 0.8 \u03bcm in size, stacked onto a 1\/2-type unit. It will begin arriving at smartphones as early as September 2018. In details, the sensor combines two key technologies: very high resolution and a &#8216;Quad Bayer&#8217; colour filter pattern. When the two collide, they offer a series of clever processing modes.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, Sony said in a press release the increased pixel count will enable high-quality photos even when devices are using digital zoom. The IMX586 implements the Quad Bayer 2&#215;2 pixel array. This means on most occasions it will combine four pixels together outputting the equivalent of a 12MP sensor with large 1.6 \u03bcm pixels. Furthermore, during the day or in a well-lit environment, the grid will return to its usual signal processing, reaching 48MP photos in real time.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sony-Xperia-XZ3-2018-First-Look-Features-Specs-Photos-Video-3.webp 891w,https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sony-Xperia-XZ3-2018-First-Look-Features-Specs-Photos-Video-3-300x167.webp 300w,https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sony-Xperia-XZ3-2018-First-Look-Features-Specs-Photos-Video-3-768x427.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sony-Xperia-XZ3-2018-First-Look-Features-Specs-Photos-Video-3.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sony-Xperia-XZ3-2018-First-Look-Features-Specs-Photos-Video-3.jpg 891w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sony-Xperia-XZ3-2018-First-Look-Features-Specs-Photos-Video-3-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/Sony-Xperia-XZ3-2018-First-Look-Features-Specs-Photos-Video-3-768x427.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-94589 sp-no-webp\" alt=\"Sony IMX586\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><\/p>\n<p>However, the IMX586 is not just about pixel count. It comes with a Quad Bayer colour filter array in which every 2\u00d72 pixel array has the same colour filter. This allows it to offer several ways to process its data, depending on the conditions.<\/p>\n<h3>Sony IMX586 availability<\/h3>\n<p>As usual, we don&#8217;t know when the new sensor will see the light of day in a production smartphone. But the upcoming Sony <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/sony-xperia-xz3-vs-huawei-mate-20-pro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Xperia XZ3<\/a> which is expected to be launched at IFA in September looks like a good candidate. Given Sony is the biggest sensor provider to the smartphone industry we should sooner or later see the IMX586 in non-Sony smartphones as well. So stay tuned with us for further updates!<\/p>\n<div class=\"31e97817518902a1d132cf665aa26f91\" data-index=\"3\" style=\"float: none; margin:10px 0 10px 0; text-align:center;\">\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_bottom -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"7613953952\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sony has introduced a new camera technology today.
