Top 5 best mobile for photography 2021

The world is constantly changing, be it the mechanical aspect or the different rules of life. And that is changing very quickly.

People are now getting the opportunity to do most of their work much easier and at a lower cost. In some places there is no need to invest money. A lot is going to be done for free. Although I do not want to say that everything is going to be free. I mean, there are some things that can be done for free. One of them is mobile photography or videography.

Now don't say that it costs money to buy a mobile phone. So that money does not seem to be spent? Yes, it seems. Now let's talk a little bit, according to the researchers, there are 5 basic human needs - food, clothing, shelter, education and medical care. Doesn't it cost money to buy or implement these now? Of course it looks . Similarly, although mobile phone is not a basic human need, it has been transformed into a basic need. Various types of work including human communication are being performed with mobile phones.

I think I said a little too much. So let's get back to the basics. In this blog, I will basically talk about some mobiles, which are known as great mobile phones for photography or videography.

4. Samsung  Galaxy  S20 Ultra 5G

A tech spec behemoth with 108MP, 100x zoom and 8K video

SPECIFICATIONS

Release date: March 2020

Rear cameras: 108MP (primary f/1.8, 26mm, OIS), 12MP (ultra wide angle f/2.2, 13mm), 48MP (telephoto f/3.5, 103mm), ToF depth-sensing camera

Front camera: 40MP (f/2.2, 26mm)

OIS: Yes

Weight: 222 g

Dimensions: 166.9 x 76 x 8.8mm

Storage: 128 / 256 / 512 GB

REASONS TO BUY

+108MP primary camera

+Up to 100x zoom

+8K video+5G future-proofing

REASONS TO AVOID

-100x zoom of limited use-8K video comes with caveats-Battery life is an issue

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G might not be the latest in its lineup, but it's still a fantastically good camera phone. Its 108MP camera proves to be more than a numbers play. And while the 100x zoom may not deliver at the extreme end, it's more than capable of giving you great-looking telephoto images. This, however, is a phone with foibles – namely the inconsistent image processing and battery life – but these will surely be fixed with firmware. The 8K is more limited you might hope, the 120Hz mode is best avoided for most, and the cost is restrictively high for many. However, the hardware is a league above that of the Galaxy S20 and S20 Plus. And judged on its picture performance, when everything clicks, it is almost certainly the best Android camera phone ever – and the best 5G camera phone, to boot.
