Main Cameras
Wide Camera This camera features a 48-megapixel sensor with an f/1.8 aperture, allowing for good low-light performance and sharp detail. Its 24mm wide-angle lens offers a broader field of view, while the 1/1.28" sensor size and 1.22µm pixels help capture more light per pixel for better image quality. Dual Pixel PDAF ensures fast and accurate autofocus, and sensor-shift OIS stabilizes the image by physically moving the sensor to reduce blur from hand shake. The Nothing Phone (3a) Pro features a 50 MP main camera with an f/1.9 aperture and a 24mm wide lens, offering sharp, high-resolution images. Its 1/1.56" sensor size and 1.0µm pixel size help capture more light, improving performance in low-light conditions. The camera also includes dual pixel PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus) for fast and accurate focusing, along with OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) to reduce blur caused by camera shake.
Telephoto Camera
Ultrawide Camera This 48 MP ultrawide camera has a 13mm focal length and f/2.2 aperture, designed to capture expansive scenes like landscapes or group shots. Its 1/2.55" sensor and small 0.7µm pixels prioritize wide coverage over light sensitivity, making it better suited for well-lit conditions. Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF) helps quickly lock focus even on wide-angle shots. The Nothing Phone (3a) Pro features an 8 MP ultrawide camera with an f/2.2 aperture and a 15mm lens, offering a wide 120˚ field of view for capturing expansive landscapes or large groups. Its 1/4.0" sensor size and 1.12µm pixel size help gather light for clear images, even in challenging lighting conditions. This lens is ideal for wide-angle shots, providing a broader perspective for creative photography
Periscope Telephoto Camera This 12 MP periscope telephoto camera has an f/2.8 aperture and a 120mm focal length, enabling 5x optical zoom for capturing distant subjects with clarity. The 1/3.06" sensor and 1.12µm pixel size are optimized for zoom shots, while dual pixel PDAF ensures fast and precise focusing. It also features advanced 3D sensor-shift optical image stabilization to minimize blur when zoomed in. The Nothing Phone (3a) Pro also features a 50 MP periscope telephoto camera with an f/2.6 aperture and a 70mm lens, allowing for impressive 3x optical zoom. Its 1/1.95" sensor size and 0.8µm pixel size enable detailed and clear shots, even at a distance, with a focus range from 15cm to infinity. The camera includes PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus) for fast focusing and OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) to ensure stable, blur-free images, even when zoomed in.
Macro Camera
Depth Camera The TOF 3D LiDAR scanner is a depth-sensing sensor that uses time-of-flight technology to measure how long it takes light to bounce off objects and return to the sensor. This creates a detailed 3D map of the environment, enabling precise depth perception. It's commonly used for enhanced autofocus, portrait effects, and augmented reality (AR) applications.
Night Vision Camera
Features The dual-LED dual-tone flash combines two different color temperatures to produce more natural-looking lighting in low-light photos. HDR (High Dynamic Range) enhances image quality by capturing multiple exposures and merging them for better detail in both bright and dark areas. This feature works in both standard photos and panoramas, ensuring balanced and vivid results. The main camera of the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro comes with useful features like an LED flash for improved low-light photography, panorama mode for wide-angle landscape shots, and HDR (High Dynamic Range) for balanced exposure, enhancing both bright and dark areas in your images. These features help ensure your photos are vibrant and detailed, no matter the lighting or scene.
Video This camera supports versatile video recording, offering 4K at up to 120fps and 1080p at up to 240fps for ultra-smooth slow motion. It captures high-quality footage with 10-bit HDR, Dolby Vision HDR (up to 60fps), and Apple ProRes for professional-grade color and detail. Additionally, it enables 3D spatial video and audio recording, along with stereo sound, for immersive playback experiences. The Nothing Phone (3a) Pro supports video recording in 4K at 30fps, offering high-resolution and detailed footage. It also allows 1080p video at 30fps, 60fps, or 120fps, providing flexibility for different frame rates. With gyro-EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) and OIS (Optical Image Stabilization), it ensures smooth, stable video recording, even in motion, for clear and shake-free videos.
Selfie
Selfie Wide Camera The selfie camera features a 12 MP sensor with an f/1.9 aperture and a 23mm wide-angle lens, ideal for sharp, detailed self-portraits. Its 1/3.6" sensor size and 1.0µm pixels enhance low-light performance, while PDAF ensures quick and accurate autofocus. Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) helps keep the shot steady, reducing blur from hand movement. The Nothing Phone (3a) Pro features a 50 MP selfie camera with an f/2.2 aperture and a 24mm wide lens, delivering high-resolution, detailed self-portraits. Its 1/2.76" sensor size allows for clear and vibrant images, even in varying lighting conditions. This powerful front camera ensures your selfies are sharp and well-lit, with great clarity and color.
Selfie Depth Camera The selfie depth camera, equipped with SL 3D (Structured Light 3D) technology, provides precise depth mapping for enhanced facial recognition and biometric security. It captures detailed 3D data to create accurate depth information, improving features like portrait mode and AR effects. Additionally, it contributes to biometric authentication for secure and reliable face unlocking.
Selfie Features The selfie camera supports HDR for improved dynamic range in photos and videos, ensuring better detail in both bright and dark areas. It also captures Dolby Vision HDR for high-quality color and contrast, and 3D spatial audio for a more immersive sound experience.
