Conflicting rumors for the Samsung Galaxy S7 camera continue. Amid reports that the 2016 flagship could feature a 25-megapixel Sony Exmor RS IMX300 lens or a 12-megapixel lens with a 1/2-inch sensor, is a new rumor that the Galaxy S7 may include a 20-megapixel camera with RAW image support. Tech informant S Leaks tweeted about the feature in late October.
Devices like the HTC One A9, HTC One M9 and LG G4 all include RAW image support. The advanced photography mode allows users to set their own image options before taking a photo. Many manufacturers including Samsung have been marketing their mobile cameras as having near DSLR quality without features such as RAW support, is the equivalent of treating photos in a dark room. The Samsung Galaxy S6 for example features a Pro model and HDR mode for improving image quality.
With all of the camera rumors floating around for the Galaxy S7, there is no saying what kind of camera the device will contain.
