The main camera with Leica Vario-Summilux optics is no less impressive. It includes a 50-megapixel sensor with optical stabilization, a 50-megapixel telephoto lens and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle module. However, there is no OIS here. But for photo editing there are many styles and filters inspired by Leica.
