ic, so the number as low as possible
haha
but it use for what ?? speed ??

im pretty sure this will be s3's camera!!

This is really quick.

The f in camera means the max aperture opening.

the number is based on the ratio between the focal length and the max diameter opening of the aperture.

E.g.

Aperture opening diameter = 2mm
Focal length = 4mm

f/2

etc.

NEW THREAD FOR NEW OS ALREADY!!!

More light allowed into the sensor.

Low light conditions, the aperture doesn't have to stay open as long.

Thereby reducing chances of shaking, and whatever u can associate with blurry low light photos.

From engadget on the camera.

Wow, I'm interested in the 'backside illumination'. The human kind.

o.O, now just wait the announcement by samsung ><

OH no why is the ICS download so slow, anyone facing the same problem?

Y I can't get the update??

So the higher the aperture the better, and the lower the focal length the better?

confuse already

if it means losing jkay mods and adobe flash in browsers, i rather not flash ics yet =.=

w00t!

Well it depends on how you want to look at it.
There's always design limitations.

But generally camera makers tweak the aperture size instead of the focal length because there's so little distance you can narrow down the focal length to. As is, the distance between the lens and the sensor is already so minute.

resurrection remix v10.0, where are you??faster come out!! >.<

Focal length is the distance between the lens and the sensor.

Aperture size is the opening of the "lens hole" that lets in light.

So he's right, bigger aperture, lower focal length is better if u want lower f number.

but not always possible.

download ICS now..kinda slow..server traffic jam maybe

Ok thanks so why dont oems make like a f5/0 sensor?

Higher the aperture translates to more light entering the hole of the camera, which translates to better picture quality even in low light. The shorter the focal length means the thinner the phone will get, and of course if the shorter the focal length of the lens means it would be able to capture a wider angular field of view as opposed to longer focal length. And that is why you noticed that Samsung camera focal length is short, but the magnification power is really compromised, as the advantages to longer focal length translates to higher power of magnification. So it's up to you, whether you want a longer camera but with higher amount of magnification which is the pure view, you can see the camera just pops out like a extrusion popping out of the phone, or you want a slimmer body like the S3 which I bet it would be slimmer than S2 but with a low magnification power but of course with a wider angular field of view.. Sorry for the long read, most of you will not read all.. but thanks for you time..

yes, and according to the blog owner, if use mobile odin pro to flash,
it will auto root.
wohoo.....rooted stock ics with tw.
like a dream come true.
i dun mind tw, so i'm happy

but the file 300+MB, need to take long time to download.
