Samsung India teams up with National Geographic for first-ever underwater expedition Samsung India's underwater expedition along with National Geographic Traveller


In a bid to showcase Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G’s 8K Video Snap prowess, Samsung India teamed up with National Geographic Traveller India and went on an underwater expedition to Maldives and capture (on camera) the famed tiger sharks.
Using the video snap feature on Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G National Geographic explorer and wildlife filmmaker Malaika Vaz shot the gentle tiger sharks in their natural habitat — at Fuvamulah, the shark island of the Maldives.
The 8K Video Snap lets users pull out high resolution stills from a cinematic 8K video, without having to choose between capturing stills and videos.
This was National Geographic Traveller India’s first-ever underwater expedition, captured using Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G’s pro-grade camera and flagship features. “The splendid marine beauty of the Shark Island in Maldives has been beautifully captured by Malaika on Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G,” said Aditya Babbar, Senior Director and Head, Mobile Marketing, Samsung India.
The video gives an insight into what it takes to swim with one of the most efficient predators underwater.
“While filming underwater in the Maldives, I was surrounded by Tiger Sharks, Hawksbill Turtles, schools of fish and corals – and I was able to capture super high resolution video footage of these species,” Malaika Vaz was quoted as saying in a Samsung press release.
