a whole new camera system built into iphone 4 so what we've done is we've gone from a 3 megapixel to a 5 megapixel sensor but we're using something that has been shipping for a while and larger cameras but it's fairly new to smartphones and that is what's called a backside illuminated sensor it's a way of getting a lot more photons to the sensor by getting some of the wiring and stuff out of the way in addition to that when most people increase their megapixels they make those pixels smaller when you make pixels smaller they capture less photons what we've done is as we've gone from 3 to 5 megapixels we've kept the pixels the same size 1.75 microns and so they don't capture less photons per pixel and we have more pixels we've got a 5x digital zoom built into the camera app of course what we pioneered tap the focus and we've got an LED flash built in and the pictures that we're taking off this are pretty remarkable of course you can do portrait and landscape you can see the digital zoom right there and these are pictures that are taken right off the iPhone 4 they haven't been touched in any way it shows you it shows you what kind of quality we're able to get so we're really happy with the the photos we're taking with the iPhone 4 we think we got a great camera built-in but that's not all because the camera also records HD video that's HD video at full 720p at 30 frames per second so it's real HD video now we pioneer and tap to focus for still photos we now have tap the focus video and we have built-in video editing for trimming your Clips right on the phone and one-click sharing to share your photos and the LED flash also will stay on to illuminate scenes for video recording
