Huawei P10

I was at MWC Barcelona all week ; when passing the Huawei booth had a play with their new Leica branded in-phone camera.

 

The set of photoshopped pictures on the wall just looked so wrong ( though a phone with an EVF would be a good idea )

 

On the plus side, the b&w mode and the post exposure focus with background blurring seemed to work remarkably well

Huaweii P10, ISO 50, 1/900s.

JPG, taken with Monochrome settings with the built-in 20mp monochrome camera, auto exposure.

Unfortunately it will not take a 20mp raw file: you only get raw with the 12mp colour camera.

Slightly cropped in LR, black & white points set, high contrast curve applied. No sharpening, clarity, local adjustments.

So, it can capture color as well as monochrom?

Yes, as you saw in my other post, it has a 12mp colour camera and 20mp monochrome camera. They can produce image files in several options:

- 20mp monochrome jpg.

- 12mp colour jpg and/or colour raw.

- 20mp colour jpg created by combining data from both sensors.

I'm still playing with it to find its capabilities.

 

As interesting as the sensors is the interface/menu system, which is very simple and intuitive. It makes me wonder if Leica had a hand in it, and if there's some cross-over between it and the TL2 touchscreen interface.

 

It also makes phone calls.

I hope Jaap reads this.

So I was thinking about one as it looks like quite a good phone.  However I just saw this and all my phone accounts are with Telstras:

So they were embarrassingly caught using a DSLR photo claiming it was taken with a P9 but the EXIF data proved otherwise:

 

Meanwhile they advertise: make every shot a cover shot. Let'a hope the P10 shot is legitimate:

It may be different where you are, but in the UK you can save 20% or so over two years by buying your phone and SIM card separately. Service and phone bundles are how the service companies make their money. I bought my phone separately.

You're right. Almost all of my phones have been bought outright separately to SIM contract, just a very bizarre relationship breakdown with Telstra.

You can save even more by using prepaid cards. Mine costs about CHF 10 a month with a data volume of 500MB; a postpaid card wih unlimited data volume is about 70 a month. The difference would buy me a very nice phone about once a year. In a typical month, I move between 200 and 300MB of data.

Table football party

Huawei P10, 20mp JPG SOOC, auto exposure, ISO160, f/2.2, 1/690s

I'm seriously impressed with this as a smartphone shot: action captured, colour quality, detail and exposure (a cloudy day, but this is taken towards the light)
