How big can a sensor be on a phone’s camera? Leica has teamed up with a rather unexpected company to give you a glimpse into the future.
I recently returned to Australia for the first time in three years, and due to the whirlwind nature of my visit and my desire to bring light belongings, I have decided not to bring any significant camera equipment. mine. It was a difficult decision to make, but in the end it was the correct one considering my circumstances and my journey. However, that meant I had to rely on the iPhone 11’s camera to capture all of my daughters’ family reunions and new experiences. When I look back at the pictures I took in two weeks, I definitely wish I had something a little better.
And that brings us to this amazing video brought to you by the Moment team, in which they review the partnership between Leica and Xiaomi, which resulted in the 12S Ultra and the world’s largest camera sensor on a phone. Just look at the sensor and you’ll be amazed that it takes up half the space on the back of the phone. When you compare it to the small upper left corner of the sensor area on my iPhone, the difference is almost unbelievable. But what about performance? I’ll let you be the judge of that, but let me say I’ll think you’ll be pleasantly surprised at what the future could look like for phone cameras. Let me know your thoughts in the comments section below.
