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 Samsung Galaxy M56's 50 MP camera features a wide-angle lens with an f/1.8 aperture, allowing for bright and detailed photos, even in low-light conditions. The camera is equipped with Phase Detection Autofocus (PDAF) for faster and more accurate focusing. Additionally, Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) helps reduce blurriness caused by camera shake, ensuring sharper images and smoother video recording.
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 Samsung Galaxy M56's 8 MP ultrawide camera has an f/2.2 aperture, allowing for wider shots with a larger field of view. This lens lets you capture more of the scene, making it ideal for landscapes or group photos. While the resolution is lower than the main camera, the ultrawide lens still delivers good detail and clarity in wider perspectives.
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.
Macro Camera The Samsung Galaxy M56's 2 MP macro camera with an f/2.4 aperture is designed for close-up shots, allowing you to capture fine details of small objects. While the 2 MP resolution is relatively low, it still provides the ability to focus on subjects as close as a few centimeters. This camera is perfect for capturing intricate textures, patterns, and small objects with a blurred background effect.
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 Samsung Galaxy M56 comes with LED flash, which helps illuminate low-light scenes for clearer shots. It also supports panorama mode, allowing you to capture wide, sweeping landscapes, and HDR (High Dynamic Range) for improved contrast and color accuracy, ensuring both bright and dark areas are well-exposed. These features enhance the versatility and quality of photos in various lighting and scene conditions.
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 Samsung Galaxy M56's camera supports 4K video recording at 30fps, delivering high-resolution footage with sharp detail. It also offers 1080p recording at both 30fps and 60fps for smoother videos, along with gyro-EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) and OIS (Optical Image Stabilization) to reduce shakes and provide steadier footage. Additionally, 10-bit HDR enhances the color depth and dynamic range, producing vibrant and more lifelike video quality.
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 Samsung Galaxy M56 features a 12 MP wide-angle selfie camera with an f/2.2 aperture, which captures clear and detailed self-portraits. The wide lens helps include more background and group members, making it great for selfies with friends or scenic backdrops. With its high resolution, the camera ensures vibrant and sharp images even in varying lighting conditions.
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. Additionally, stereo sound recording enhances the audio quality of selfies and videos for richer, more realistic sound.
Selfie Video The selfie camera can record video in 4K at up to 60fps, offering crisp and smooth footage for high-quality selfies and vlogs. It also supports 1080p recording at up to 120fps for detailed slow-motion video. Gyro-EIS (Electronic Image Stabilization) ensures steady footage by compensating for hand movements during video capture.
