A rear camera is a type of camera located on the back of a device, such as a smartphone or tablet. It is primarily used for capturing photos and videos of the environment in front of the user. Rear cameras often come with various features, including different resolutions, zoom capabilities, and flash options, enhancing the quality of images taken. Most modern rear cameras are equipped with advanced technology, such as autofocus and image stabilization, to improve picture clarity. Some devices also offer multiple rear cameras, allowing for different perspectives, such as wide-angle or macro shots, providing users with more creative options for photography.
