The vivo V-series has a reputation of offering clever camera features that stand out from the crowd — a legacy that continues and being kept alive by the new vivo V40 5G.
vivo made a lot of upgrades to the latest model. But one of the main ones is the ZEISS technology, a feature that used to be exclusive to the Pro models, now found on the more affordable vivo V40 5G model.
Equipped with advanced optics, three advanced 50-megapixel ZEISS All Main Camera, and vivo’s signature AI 3D Studio Lighting, there is definitely a lot to talk about the camera prowess of the vivo V40 5G. And today, we’ll lay them out for you.
Take your best photos, day and night
First thing’s first, let’s talk about the best of the three cameras: the 50-megapixel ZEISS OIS Main Camera with a 24mm equivalent, which uses a large GNJ 1/56-inch sensor with an f1.88 aperture and of course, optical image stabilization that allows it to absorb 2.8x more light and reduces blur when shooting in low-light.
This impressive camera lets you take stunning photos with deep contrast and vibrant colors during the day, and even more stunning stills at night with well-lit and sharp details.
Your best portraits, taken with the ZEISS Multifocal Portrait camera
The main camera is so sharp that you can use it for 2x portrait shots. This zoomed in shot has a 50mm equivalent — the favorite focal length of professional photographers for shooting portraits.
Portraits will look extra impressive with the ZEISS Style Portrait effects. Unleash your creativity, choose the perfect effect for your photos — effects that are inspired by classic ZEISS lenses. Lenses such as the ZEISS Biotar, ZEISS B-Speed, ZEISS Distagon, are now all available in your pocket thanks to the vivo V40 5G.
Last generation’s ZEISS lighting effects are also here, which morphs the lights on the screens to look like the photos have been taken from some of ZEISS’s classic cameras: the Biotar, B-speed, Sonnar, Planar, Distagon, Cine-flare, and Cinematic.
vivo’s signature Aura Light, now brighter
The Aura Light is undeniably one of the coolest innovations vivo has brought to the table. This Ring LED flash on the back of the phone is now 33% brighter than the previous model, so you can have better exposure on your shots by providing an even, not-overblown lighting to your subject.
But vivo didn’t stop there. More than making the light brighter, they also introduced a new feature called AI 3D Studio Lighting.
Wide selfie camera to let more friends in
Finally, we have the 50-megapixel ZEISS Group Selfie Camera, which has autofocus and a wide 93-degree wide angle, letting you take selfies with more friends fitting inside the frame — all with the incredible detail and image quality of that impressive sensor.
vivo also included its new AI Facial Contouring Technology that subtly adds contours to your face so you look your best on every selfies.
You can look and appreciate all the photos you’ve taken on the vivo V40 5G’s smooth, roomy, and vibrant 6.78-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. Out for a trip or an adventure? The device also ensures that you can shoot all day thanks to its large 5,500mAh BlueVolt battery with speedy 80W FlashCharge and IP68 dust and water resistance rating.
