Huh. Thanks for posting that.

I'd seen the dual lens phones but I assumed they were individually selected wide angle and short telephoto options that the user selects manually.

This article says that the phone performs image processing and creates a composite zoomed image from the two cameras.

An extremely clever and practical solution.

I still wonder if a "pure" telephoto zoom lens is possible in a phone form factor, but I believe that basic optics precludes that as a possibility.

You'd need a phone that's 1-2 inches deep to accommodate the lens barrel and telescoping parts.

I have a friend, he is a Java programmer, a pretty smart guy well above the average person even in IT.

He uses 90's or 15 year old flip type phones because he thinks the smart phones capture your fingerprint and send it to "them", and other stuff.

Turns out he is not so far off.

So true, so true.

They dont have to worry about Huawei stealing when they hire naturalized foreigners inside of defense companies. And they also give these naturalized foreigner's companys the defense contracts.

Good times indeed.
