In the field of mobile phone macro photography, is Huawei stronger or Apple stronger?

October 25, 2022

On the recently released Huawei Mate50 RS, Huawei is equipped with a 4800W pixel periscope macro telephoto lens for the first time, which has attracted the curiosity of many users. It also made a lot of macro photos appear on major social networking sites. Source: Screenshot of Xiaohongshu So where is the power of telephoto macro? What's the difference between it and the ultra-wide-angle macro lens that most cameras on the market carry? The closest focusing distance of the wide-angle main camera lens on our mobile phone is generally around 8-12cm, and no matter how close it is, the focusing cannot be guaranteed. This allows many users to hold the phone very close to the surface of the object when taking some close-up shots, but cannot focus. Users who understand a little bit of the principle may try to adjust the focus distance away from the mobile phone, while the "white" users who have no understanding of the principle of the camera may simply give up close-up shooting. So on the early smartphones, there will be some "macro lenses" specially launched for macro photos. Most of these lenses have a pixel count of about 200w. Activate at close range to take macro photos. However, this kind of lens is obviously not suitable for the current smart phone structure. The image quality is not very good, but it takes up the lens position of a camera, which is really worth the loss. As a result, its work was gradually replaced by an ultra-wide-angle lens. Starting with the iPhone 11, many mobile phone manufacturers have replaced the second lens on the fuselage from a telephoto to an ultra-wide-angle, because the use of ultra-wide-angle is wider. The IQOO Neo 7 released yesterday is actually equipped with a 200W macro lens Source: The closest focusing distance of the ultra-wide-angle lens on vivo's official website can be about 2.5cm, which is closer to the subject, so the details of the photos taken will of course be more. Now, most mobile phone manufacturers have 5000W pixels for ultra-wide-angle lenses. After the macro is turned on, the algorithm will crop the ultra-wide-angle picture, so that the picture presents 1 times the main camera frame, so that it does not appear in the photo. Distortion produced by the ultra-wide-angle lens, resulting in a more practical picture than a 200W-pixel macro lens. At present, 90% of mobile phone macros on the market are realized through this principle. Image source: Apple's official website and the 4800W pixel telephoto macro on Huawei Mate50RS is different. It can make the mobile phone a relatively far distance from the subject, and achieve the effect of macro shooting through magnification, which is very in line with The imaging principle of the Fuji macro lens I am currently using (80mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro) is also a lens that achieves macro shooting at the "telephoto" end. The use of telephoto macro lenses on mobile phones is not Huawei's first. Xiaomi is back with the Redmi K30

Chinese EV start-up WM Motor reportedly cut employees’ salaries by up to 50%

October 26, 2022

Baidu-backed Chinese electric vehicle (EV) start-up WM Motor Holdings has reportedly cut cut staff salaries by up to 50 per cent as its financial condition deteriorated. The Shanghai-based carmaker, which has an annual production capacity of 250,000 units, cut senior managers’ salaries by half and reduced the salaries of other employees by 30 per cent this month, according to financial media outlet Jiemian. Two executives of WM’s supply-chain vendors attributed the company’s financial troubles to weak sales, highlighting that WM Motor was struggling to sustain its operations. WM Motor booked a total loss of 1.95 billion yuan (US$270 million) in 2021, up 68% from a year earlier. In the first eight months of 2022, the company sold 25,158 vehicles in China, which is tiny numbers compared Its domestic rivals. Xpeng, Li Auto and Nio routinely sold about 10,000 vehicles each in one month. WM Motor priced its vehicles between 150,000 yuan (US$20,574) and 200,000 yuan that medium-to-low market. In comparison, Xpeng, Li Auto and Nio are priced above 200,000 yuan and compete against Tesla’s Model 3 and Model Y vehicles. In June, WM filed an IPO application to the Hong Kong stock exchange, joining the ranks of EV peers Leapmotor Technology, XPeng, Li Auto and Nio, all of which have either applied to list or are already listed on the Hong Kong exchange, WM motor was founded by automotive veteran Freeman Shen in 2015, who held various senior management position at Volvo, Fiat and Geely in China. WM Motor is partnering with Baidu on Project Apollo, one of the world’s largest and most diversified open autonomous driving alliance platforms.
