Massive 52 megapixel resolution
Need to make a billboard? You’re in luck!
With up to 52 megapixel images, you’re free to zoom, crop and enlarge to your heart’s content, without sacrificing resolution. That's because the L16 uses disruptive hardware and proprietary software to capture and process your moments in ridiculous detail.

Over 5x optical zoom
No need to carry large lenses
As you zoom in or out, the L16 intelligently chooses the best combination of 28mm, 70mm, and 150mm camera modules to use for the job. So you can get beautiful close-up photos with no quality degradation at over 5X optical zoom.

Unmatched low-light performance
Finally, a camera that isn’t scared of the dark
It seems there’s never enough light to take great shots at night. But with 10 cameras shooting simultaneously, the L16 gathers up to 15x more light than the best smartphones. So you get beautifully lit photos, late into the night - no tripod required.

Precise depth-of-field control
Choose your focus after the fact
With 10 cameras firing at once, the L16 effectively “sees” like a human eye and captures not just what’s in the scene, but also the distance between objects. This enables the user to pick focale plane and the depth of field, long after taking the photo.

Automatic over-the-air updates
A camera that gets better as you sleep
Built on the Android platform, the L16’s software is constantly improving to make the technology even more powerful over time. With OTA app updates, rest assured you’ll always have the most up-to-date computational algorithms on your camera.

Ordinarily the WSJD Personal Tech team doesn’t jump on products that are still so far from consumers’ hands. When Light’s co-founder and CTO, Rajiv Laroia, came by with his team to show us the invention, however, it seemed like a product that should exist...”
