Here's a hot story we didn't quite get from yesterday. This looks like some very solid intel, but to be on the safe side, we will label it a rumor for now. The following are supposedly the full features and specifications of the Samsung Galaxy S5 camera.

First up we have the hardware -
  • 16 megapixel sensor - can take different sizes of pics from 2.4MP up to 16MP
  • Possibly Samsung's new ISOCELL technology, but that is unconfirmed
  • Ability to shoot 4K resolution video at 30fps - can capture 1080p video at 60fps
  • Physical camera button may be replaced with new "side touch" tech - (small sensor at the bottom right hand - activated by a simple touch tap)
Next we have the software & camera modes -
  • 3D Tour Shot: Create interactive virtual tours of your surroundings.
  • Sports: Take clearer pictures of fast-moving subjects.
  • Focus Select: Make your subjects stand out against the background by adjusting the depth of field.
  • Dual Camera: You can take pictures and record videos using the front and rear cameras at the same time.
  • Aqua: Appropriate for taking pictures underwater. (is the waterproofing rumor true afterall?)
  • Animated Photo: Create a picture containing moving objects by animating parts of the picture.
  • 3D Panorama: Create a spherical panorama of your surroundings.
  • Sound & Shot: Enrich your pictures by adding a few seconds of background sound.
  • Drama: Takes multiple exposure pictures of a moving subject and merges them into one dramatic picture.
  • Golf: Take pictures of a golf swing. You can then play the pictures forwards or backwards.
  • Auto Portrait: Take self-portrait with the rear camera.
  • Rich Tone (HDR): Take pictures with softer or richer colours by merging pictures taken in various exposures.
  • Auto: Automatically adjusts the exposure to optimise the colour and brightness of pictures. You can take single or burst shots.
  • Eraser: Save the best picture after erasing moving objects from consecutive pictures.
  • Night: Take brighter, clearer pictures in low light without the flash.
  • Best Face: Select the best picture of each person from 5 consecutive pictures to get the best merged group picture.
  • Best Photo: Take a series of pictures, and then select the best to save.
  • Continues Shot: Take pictures continuously.
  • Panorama: Create a linear panorama by taking pictures in either a horizontal or vertical direction.
Even more possible features -
  • Mosaic Shot
  • Smile Shot
  • Frame Shot
  • Vintage
  • Cartoon
  • Add Me
  • Action Shot
  • Stop Motion
  • Cartoon and Pet
Enhanced camera effects:

Grey-scale, Sepia, Negative, Emboss, Outline, Watercolour, Monochrome, Sketch, Washed Out, Posterise, Solarise, Vintage, Cold Vintage, Warm Vintage, Blue, Green Point, Red/Yellow, Nostalgia, Faded Colour, Retro, Sunshine, Old Photo, Cartoon, Oil Pastel, Moody, Engraving, Vignette, Rugged, Tint, Turquoise, Fisheye, Noir Note and Vincent.

As you can see, it appears that Samsung went completely nuts with camera improvements for the Galaxy S5! We can't wait to see this unveiled at MWC on Monday!
