Samsung S21 FE and Moon shots

The Moon shot on the Samsung S21 FE can be taken at 30x magnification. It uses a telemodule with the 7.12mm f/2.4 lens (76mm f/25.6 equivalent) and the Hynix Hi-847 sensor (8MP 1/4.40" - very tiny, crop factor ~10.7), but the image is upscaled 10x as claimed (I think, a bit more to get 12MP from 8MP).

1. Actual captured image, cropped 1:1 after upscaling.



The resolution is too low to upscale that much.


2. The fake image, cropped 1:1.



This is not a result from the sensor, it is generated by software: ANALYSIS - Samsung Moon Shots are FakeSamsung "space zoom" moon shots are fake, and here is the proof.


3. And for comparison the Vivitar OEM 85/1.8 at f/6 on the Sony a7c (24MP FF) and upscaled 6.4x, cropped 1:1:



Compare the edge of the Moon, there is no relief in the S21 FE fake version because there is no base data from the sensor.
