This partnership signifies a best blend of Zeiss’s distinctive imaging knowledge and Vivo’s technological prowess in creating immaculate smartphone cameras. The two brands have set up a Vivo-Zeiss Imaging Lab, a joint R&D programme focused on creating breakthrough mobile imaging technologies enabling expert-grade photography expertise.
Explaining the vision behind the partnership, Sebastian Doentgen, head of category management and advertising and marketing, Zeiss Consumer Products, stated, “We are always looking to bring consumer products which they can use to realise their ambitions. We are always seeking partners who share this passion and who are willing to go to absolute top limits to achieve this goal.”
The vivo X70 series is anticipated to feature Vivo’s iconic expert photography and videography features, permitting customers to manifest their creativity in higher-definition and create vivid multimedia content. Vivo has supplemented 4 groundbreaking Zeiss Style Portraits—inspired by the Zeiss classic lenses—Distagon, Planar, Sonnar and Biotar for X70 series customers.
