Samsung Galaxy Note 3 may pack optical image stabilisation

Will the 3 be a super shooter?

Despite Samsung's obvious attempts to keep everything under wraps, it's no secret that the Galaxy Note 3 is very much on its way, and now some sources have let slip a few more details – including a few camera enhancements we can allegedly expect.

The third generation Note will pack a 13-megapixel camera with an anti-shake feature, according to the "industry insiders" cited by ETNews.

The elusive inside agents also claimed that Samsung is working to bring optical image stabilisation tech to the next phablet, putting it up against traditional cameras.

Samsung is also said to be considering a 3x zoom optical zoom for the device, but has concerns that including one would add considerable bulk to the phone.

Note this down

Interestingly, this might be the first time Samsung has acknowledged the device's existence. An official from Samsung Electronics allegedly told ETNews said, "we are pondering various technologies at this stage - for example, OIS and shutter functions," but added that nothing could be confirmed.

The inside source, meanwhile, said that no final decisions regarding the camera had been made, but we'd expect that something will be firmed soon. After all, we're expecting a reveal at IFA 2013 - and that's just four months away.

We've contacted Samsung for further comment and will update if we hear more.
