    Variable aperture is so valuable for photographers. Being able to control depth of field to get more in focus is key for any kind of photography, especially as sensors get larger. Also, stopping down lenses generally increases the sharpness significantly

    I was testing the phone at a local XiaoMi flagship store. The phone now comes with phone case with threaded 67mm screw bezel + lens cap which you can attach a polarised /ND filter. It also comes with a bluetooth trigger gun grip which attaches to the side of the phone to replicate the look and feel of a Leica M camera.
    I noticed that the photos taken with the 13 pro has a slight vignette to it, I think it was more of an aesthetic touch, similar to how it's camera renders sky capture to have a deep blue hue.

  • @arjunkrishna1
    @arjunkrishna1 Před rokem +441

    That f4.0 aperture is necessary in large sensor cameras. When we record video in bright daylight, even with the lowest ISO, the shutter speed should be 1/800 to 1/3000 to get correct exposure. Videos with that high shutter speed looks jittery especially if you're filming in 24/30fps. At f4, the shutter speed can be lower, creating slight motion blur that looks natural.

  • @SharpShots-hk4fw
    @SharpShots-hk4fw Před rokem +4

    I feel like the f4 camera would be super helpful for video. The only reason 24p feels "jittery" is because when phone cameras have a f-stop value that is fixed super wide open, they have to take down the shutter speed to compensate which causes an unsettling lack of motion blur. Having a lense at f4 would likely help with some of that I feel.

  • @branimirteodorovic2297
    @branimirteodorovic2297 Před rokem +718

    Smaller aperture is useful when you want to take a picture of something that is close and you want everything to be in focus: two people standing one in from of other, food, documents...
    It is also useful when you are recording 24/30 fps video in sunlight because it will allow longer shutter speeds which will make video less choppy.
    There is a reason why real cameras have variable aperture.

The shortcuts to the various 35/50/75mm lens are great fun and Leica-like photos effects straight off the camera if you dont want to spend time editing in LR. Great blacks, tones, low noise. Doesnt overexpose like Sam/IP. However this is my first time with a Chinese phone and there are some majr drawbacks on the OS (like google maps doesnt fully work, cant change deafult AI to google assistant ). So wait for the official launch in your country. Great camera otherwise (the rest of the phone is just top notch Android).

    it increases depth of field and that is important for photographers.I mean to say, cameras go up to F32 and we are only talking F4 .The whole idea is it actually brings objects into sharper focus , for instance, you can focus on your ear with a 1.8 aperture and the point of focus will be in a focus but every thing else will be out of focus after about an inch at a distance of 4 feet from the subject resulting in a lot of out of focus shots.Having f4 eliminates a lot of out of focus shots when shooting at a close distance for instance a macro shot will have more of what you are shooting in focus ., shooting someones face and using the tip of there nose as the focus point at a close distance will result in the face being soft using F1.8 but will be in focus using an f4 stop.

    I think the reason why the charging is slower on this one ("slower" but still leagues faster then Samsung or Apple's fastest which isn't included). Is that they finally added USB 3.x support. Technically the USB standard doesn't support 210 Watts of power, so I think a lot of it might be them changing pinout.
    But now they finally have their first phone with USB 3.X which at least for me is a big deal, as I use USB C to HDMI cables regularly, and you can use all in one docs and Samsung dex like features in the future. But all of these things require USB 3.X speeds. That's an addition to the obviously much faster transfers, it was one of the few things they were missing. So I hope they keep it going and don't return to 2.0. So people like me can plug their phone into TVs.

    • @PolyAndroidBenzene
      @PolyAndroidBenzene Před rokem +9

      No, because there are other Chinese phone have 120W charging and USB 3.X support, the reason xiaomi went 90W for this phone is because of the energy density. The faster you can charge your phone, the lower energy density your battery get, because of the 4 camera system 13 ultra have, there is very little place left for battery, hence 90W with higher energy density.

People who know and shoot manual will use it. If you dont care the phone will do for you when it thinks what is in scene and what do you want to shoot.
