Design
The device is dustproof and water-resistant. Water-resistant devices can resist the penetration of water, such as powerful water jets, but not being submerged into water.
The device is protected with extra seals to prevent failures caused by dust, raindrops, and water splashes.
You can operate the device easily, by pressing the screen with your fingers.
An accelerometer is a sensor used to measure the linear acceleration of a device. A common application is detecting when a device changes between vertical and horizontal positions.
Flip-out screens can be useful for tricky shots.
A prime lens has a fixed focal length. In general, these are sharper, with a wider aperture.
Videography
The maximum resolution available for videos shot with the main camera. Although it may be possible to choose among other frame rates, those recordings usually have lower resolutions.
24p is a video format (24 frames per second) traditionally used in cinema. Nowadays, it is used to create film-like motion characteristics.
Slow-motion is an artistic video effect that makes time seem to go slower. It is achieved by recording a video at a higher frame-rate than the standard playback rate of 24fps or 30fps. Frame rates for slow-motion videos vary between 60fps and 960fps.
When recording movies they stay focussed and sharp.
A timelapse shows a long passage of time sped up. A series of photographs taken from the same position over a long period is joined together to create a short video. It is great way to capture things like the setting sun, or clouds moving across the sky.
The burst mode, also called serial shot mode or continuous shooting mode, allows you to shoot multiple photos in a row.
Optics
The number of megapixels determines the resolution of the images captured with the main camera. A higher megapixel count means that the camera is capable of capturing more details. However, the megapixel count is not the only important element determining the quality of an image.
A BSI (backside illuminated) sensor is a camera image sensor which captures better quality images in poor lighting conditions, and offers better overall sharpness and image quality.
The lens is made by a reputable photographic equipment manufacturer, as opposed to a low-cost unbranded lens.
This allows you to manually set the ISO level.
Optical image stabilization uses gyroscopic sensors to detect the vibrations of the camera. The lens adjusts the optical path accordingly, ensuring that any type of motion blur is corrected before the sensor captures the image.
This allows you to manually set the exposure.
Audio
A microphone port allows connecting external high-end or specialized microphones.
A stereo microphone allows to record audio files or movies in stereo without an external microphone.
Zoom microphones record high-quality audio and enable you to record sound from a distance. They can be useful for recording meetings, lectures, and presentations.
With a standard mini jack socket, you can use the device with most headphones.
Devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better experience.
Battery
The battery is removable and can be replaced by the user if broken.
Battery power, or battery capacity, represents the amount of electrical energy that a battery can store. More battery power can be an indication of longer battery life.
The device has a standard memory slot (such as an SD or micro SD card slot) that enables you to extend the built-in internal storage with affordable memory modules, or easily retrieve data, such as photographs, from the memory card.
An indicator shows you when the device has low battery.
The battery can be recharged and used over again.
Features
GPS enables global positioning, useful in map, geo-tagging or navigation apps.
It is compatible with a range of Android devices such as smartphones and tablets.
Devices with a HDMI or mini HDMI port can transfer high definition video and audio to a display.
The device can connect to Wi-Fi.
Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n) is a wireless standard released in 2009. It has faster transfer rates and improved security compared to its predecessors – a, b, and g.
It is compatible with a range of iOS devices such as iPhones, iPads and the iPod Touch.
Miscellaneous
It has two memory card slots, allowing you to store more photos without switching cards. This is particularly useful on long shoots when you need more space.
It allows you to shoot a panorama 360° in every direction, by stitching together multiple shots that you take while turning on the spot. This creates a spherical 360° panorama, which allows you to look around in all directions instead of just horizontally.
A gyroscope is a sensor that tracks the orientation of a device, more specifically by measuring the angular rotational velocity. Initially, they were built using a spinning rotor to detect changes in orientation, like twisting or rotation.
A compass is useful for gaming, maps, and navigation software.
A multi-lens camera captures two or more images and overlays them. This technology creates sharper images, especially in low light conditions, and allows you to use effects such as softening the background.
