JurijTurnsek Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 Quote The main reason that the LCND needs to be used in a matte box is that both Sony and RED own several patents in relation to putting variable electronic ND in a camera.

Administrators Andrew Reid Posted January 18, 2020 Administrators Share Posted January 18, 2020 I just got a Mate 30 Pro. Very large sensor in the ultra wide camera, for a change. Quality is very good but colour can be hit or miss, prefer naturalness and consistency of the iPhone Remember it's not all about specs!

GSMarena reviews clearly show that behind the amazing specs, there is average image quality for many Huawei phones (and other brands). However, limiting the reach of a very innovative OEM theoretically lowers competitiveness and the consumer can be fed the same products generation after generation. Either way, I value the more versatile zoom range in a device that is not meant for video work, but rather for documenting your life. Anyway, Samsung S20 Ultra will be a (costly) beast and it will be release globally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emanuel Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 The zoom sharpness results testify the use of 8MP crop to reach that rather than the 2x mode from 12MP on the 7T model as much as iPhone's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billdoubleu Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 This video looks horrendous on my 4k screen with fast Ethernet and video quality set to 8k. Does anyone else see better quality or is this a YouTube quality issue? I can't imagine Qualcomm holding this up as a shining example of their tech as is.

JurijTurnsek Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 It was recorded using a 48mp chip, which is meant to be used a quad bayer array (pixel binning 4 small pixels for 1 big one giving you 12mps and 4K resolution). If used at full resolution, the results are underwhelming in photo mode, so video can't be any better. I've said it before - even the best smartphone 4K is only equal to a good 1080p from a dedicated camera with a big sensor, so the 8K pixels only make sense as a method for better downsampled 4K. Qualcomm is only flexing their processing power with this demo. Samsung S20 series will to 8K video, so we will get to see some samples in a few weeks.
