A new generation of Micro Four Thirds sensors is ready to arrive in the market, and it’s not from a single chip maker. The range starts from 100 megapixels to 44 megapixels, each of them boasting enormous resolution. As you can see, the Samsung-made sensor boasts the highest quantum efficiency. From my understanding, they are working on M4/3 format-based smartphones in their lab. Possibly in the next two to three years, we will have a new range of flagship camera phones with sensors that are 33% larger than the 1-inch sensors used in today’s smartphones. They will surely create more serious competition for APS-C & Fullframe Mirrorless cameras.
List of 4/3 Sensor ready for flagship smartphones of future
4/3-inch 108Mp 1.4μm Nonacell Full-pixel DPAF (new ISOCELL, optimized quantum efficiency)
4/3-inch 80Mp 1.65μm QuadBayer Full-pixel 2×2 OCL AF (IMX472 changed to Mipi interface, reducing digital layer power consumption)
4/3 inch 50Mp 2.1μm 4-Cell Full-pixel 2×2 OCL AF WDR (LOFIC TheiaCel)
4/3 inch 44Mp 2.25μm Mask-PD AF VDGS (Pregius S II)
Quantum Efficiency (QE) in a camera sensor refers to the effectiveness of an imaging device in converting incident photons into electrons.
