Epic selfies every time

Inspired by ISOCELL

Back to top

Take your selfie game to a whole new level with Samsung’s ISOCELL JD1. With this 0.7μm, 32MP high-resolution image sensor powering your smartphone’s selfie camera, you won’t need to worry about dim lighting or fuzzy details ruining your carefully framed photo. That’s because the ISOCELL JD1 comes with Tetrapixel and Smart-ISO technology that brings out the color and detail in each and every shot. It’s all topped off by a slim and compact design that frees up more room on full-screen displays by supporting smaller and less distracting camera holes.

ISOCELL Plus

Impeccable
color accuracy

Get the most out of the ISOCELL JD1’s 32 million pixels with technology that optimizes the color of each and every one. Small pixels are not normally known for precise color reproduction, but Samsung’s ISOCELL Plus technology makes it possible for the sensor’s 0.7μm-sized pixels to produce vibrant images. The technology does this by isolating individual pixels with special materials, allowing more light to be collected by the micro-lens, and enhancing each pixel’s color fidelity and light sensitivity.

Staggered HDR

Capture beauty
in contrast

Snap photos of stunning scenery that are just as breathtaking as the real thing. The ISOCELL JD1’s staggered HDR (HIGH DYNAMIC RANGE) technology ensures rich detail and color in highlights and shadows, which makes it perfect for shooting sunsets and other high-contrast scenes. It works by combining multiple images at different levels of exposure to enhance your photos’ dynamic range, and it does so quickly and cleanly, with absolutely no loss of resolution.

Tetrapixel

The best of
both worlds

Enjoy bright, beautiful images day or night. Because good lighting is what often separates a professional-looking photo from a mediocre one, the ISOCELL JD1 utilizes Samsung’s Tetrapixel technology to capture as much light as possible – even in low-light environments. Using a special color filter array, Tetrapixel combines four pixels into one to absorb more light in dark conditions, resulting in brighter images with less noise. In bright light, the ISOCELL JD1 makes use of all 32 million of its pixels to produce incredibly sharp and detailed photos.

Smart-ISO

ISO selection
made easy

Capture more special moments, wherever and whenever they occur. The ISOCELL JD1 takes the guesswork out of selecting the optimal ISO for your shot by making it easy to adjust your camera’s light sensitivity. It does this by utilizing Samsung’s Smart-ISO technology, which automatically switches between a high ISO and a low ISO to produce detailed shots in any lighting conditions. In low-light environments, the sensor switches to a high ISO to express details in the shadows. In bright settings, it utilizes a low ISO to prevent oversaturation and express details in highlights.

Super-PD

Focus on the action faster

Never let another epic moment slip away. The ISOCELL JD1’s Super PD auto focus technology zeroes in on fast-moving and stationary objects quickly and accurately, so you can capture the moment before it passes you by. It works in a similar way to human vision, comparing input derived from two different points to focus on subjects right away. It’s quick and seamless, and it gives you the peace of mind that your photos will be crisp and sharp, even when you are on the move.
