Samsung teamed up with National Geographic Traveller India to showcase the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G’s 8K video snap feature by capturing the tiger sharks of the Maldives in ‘shark island’ Fuvahmulah.

According to Samsung, using the 8K video snap on the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G, National Geographic Explorer and wildlife filmmaker Malaika Vaz captured majestic and gentle tiger sharks in their natural habitat. Likewise, this journey was National Geographic Traveller India’s first-ever underwater expedition, captured using the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G’s pro-grade camera and flagship features.

We are excited to unveil yet another episode of an epic adventure with National Geographic Traveller India, shot using the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G. At Samsung, we believe in innovations that enable our consumers to do more. Featuring a first-of-its-kind camera with a pro-grade 108MP lens and 8K video recording, the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G changes the way you shoot. With the industry-first 8K Video Snap feature, photography enthusiasts now have the power to extract high-resolution stills from every second of an 8K video. The splendid marine beauty of Maldives’ Shark Island has been beautifully captured by Malaika on the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G.

National Geographic Explorer and wildlife filmmaker Malaika Vaz uncovered the beauty of Fuvahmulah as part of the #UncoverTheEpic campaign. The underwater video features spectacular scenes of marine life and the majestic tiger shark, shot using the Galaxy S21 Ultra. While tiger sharks prey on fish, they are however both gentle and curious around humans.
