The best of the mobile phone image is bad, and the "amount of light" of the optical device is the key. What is the amount of light entering the light? In simple terms, it is the amount of light that the main camera's sensor (pixel sensor) can actually accept. The higher the amount of light entering the image, the richer the image information received by the sensor and the better the imaging performance.
Many users don't understand why the ** shot in night scenes, backlight or complex scenes is still blurry and distorted, because the main camera itself has too many limitations, especially in the amount of light intake. This is also the reason why many flagship phones, including the iPhone, have limited image quality improvement while increasing the pixels.
The Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra has put a lot of effort into the overall planning of the imaging system. Through a strategic collaboration with Leica to customize the optical system, the size of the 1-inch sensor for the main camera color sense has been significantly increased to 1 12 inches, which is equivalent to 15 of the iPhone 1 Pro Max6 times. This allows the 14 Ultra to at least double the amount of light coming in compared to the iPhone, to a staggering degree.
What does that mean exactly? To put it simply, Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra can obtain more refined and dynamic picture information in the same scene, and the output quality is higher. Especially in complex lighting environments, it can still easily restore the level of detail, and the actual increase is more than doubled. Even the night mode doesn't need to be triggered, and in many cases, you can just turn on the automatic mode to achieve a similar effect to long exposures.
The practical benefits of a huge amount of light.
So, what does this improve the actual effect? Let's take a look at some of the examples.
The first is portrait shooting, no matter day or night, the Xiaomi Mi 14 ultra shoots portraits with richer details, **The texture is delicate and light, and the layers of lipstick and eyeshadow have also been carefully restored. This is thanks to 1 1The 2-inch large light sensor can receive more subtle light information.
Secondly, in terms of landscape photography, the 14 Ultra's camera can easily preserve the layering of sky clouds and tree leaves, even with strong backlit contrast**. This greatly improves the ability to photograph landscapes and record beautiful moments while traveling.
Then there is night photography, which is the shortcoming of many mobile phone cameras, and the Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra completely subverts the previous perception. At night, the cityscape is vividly revealed, and the architectural lights and traffic flow are vividly displayed. Note: This is only possible with automatic mode and basic parameter adjustments.
Needless to say, the Mi 14 Ultra's greatly improved optics and algorithms make it a professional-grade performance in a variety of mobile image shooting scenarios. The increase in the amount of light entering this is crucial. And the actual experience improvement brought by this is in line with the image measurement data.
It can be said that the co-evolution of the optical system and algorithms has brought the Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra's imaging capabilities to new heights. The huge increase in light intake is undoubtedly the most critical part of it. This also indicates that the charm and potential of optics in the era of moving images are still huge, and it is believed that more innovative solutions will be launched in the future.
At this moment, the Xiaomi Mi 14 Ultra is undoubtedly the new benchmark for mobile imaging. It not only reaches the peak in terms of hardware configuration, but also has better software application and scene application. You and I, who dream of taking pictures, finally have an artifact that we can trust with confidence.
