The Multi-Lens Light L16 Camera Finally Launches

Smartphone cameras are getting ever more capable, and many users no longer carry a pocket compact camera. A new generation of dual-lens phones can even produce depth-of-field effects, so cameras need stronger selling points to attract consumers. About four years ago, the Light L16 camera first appeared. Its 16 lenses of various sizes made a striking impression at the time, but the fact that it never officially went on sale was disappointing.

This small, lightweight portable camera uses its 16 lenses together with a specially developed algorithm, allowing the Light L16 to capture 52-megapixel photos and offer 5x optical zoom. Users can also control the depth of field of their photos. The manufacturer began taking pre-orders nearly 18 months ago, and those customers have waited a long time. The company has now announced that the camera is being delivered to the first customers who placed orders. For cautious buyers who worried that the manufacturer might disappear with their money and wanted to order only after delivery began, the bad news is that the next round of pre-orders will open at the end of this year, though the delivery schedule is unknown.
