On the optics side of things, the Galaxy J4+ boasts a 13MP rear camera (f/1.9) and 8MP front shooter. For selfie addicts, there"s the Selfie Focus feature meant to adjust the depth of field while taking a photo. The rear camera also has a Floating Shutter feature to let users record moments with a single hand.
