Samsung has announced its tiniest camera sensor to date, the ISOCELL Slim GH1. Designed specifically for that becomes more problematic the smaller pixels get. Samsung also notes the ISOCELL Slim GH1 offers its Tetracell technology, which uses pixel-merging methods to give the sensor The ISOCELL Slim GH1 is capable of recording 4K video at up to 60 frames per second by using Samsung’s Tetracell technology to downsample the footage down to 3,840 x 2,160 pixels, a resolution that covers the standard resolution of 4K video (3,840 x 2,160 pixels).
It also features phase detection autofocus, real-time HDR capabilities and gyro-based electronic image stabilization (EIS).
Samsung says it will start production of the ISOCELL Slim GH1 by the end of the year, meaning we probably won’t see it inside any devices until 2020. Based on the 'Slim' nomanclature and the mention of 'selfie' in the press release, it's likely this particular sensor will be used as a front-facing camera, although it's certainly not limited to such implementations.
