Its a bit smaller than we expected... - Xiaomi 12s Ultra Camera Sensor Teardown!

Xiaomi has a REALLY big camera... lens. But is the Camera itself as large as they say? They only way to find out for sure is to open it up and measure it for ourselves! Today we are taking apart the brand new flagship 12s Ultra from Xiaomi. We are going to measure the worlds largest smartphone sensor - and see how big it really is. Is Xiaomi's "true one inch sensor" really 1 inch? I have my doubts...

Now here's a thought. Switching inch measurements over to rectangle diagonal instead of tube diameter would just confuse everyone. What if, hear me out, we switched to centimeters instead. Since no one measures in centimeters right now there'd be no confusion AND you could switch to a better way of measuring like diagonal, area or circumference

@arouraios4942 Жыл бұрын

Also manufacturers could include both measurements, one in inches and one in centimeters. You aren't forced to get used to a different way of measuring but you do have the more 'accurate' measurement if you want to use it

I'd say the easiest is just place a label at the end of the measurement i.e. 1" senor tube radius or 1" sensor diagonal or whatever. But lets be real, they are intentionally using that measurement for marketing, even if we think of a better way to avoid misleading, they for sure wont pick it up.

@simioni Жыл бұрын

Diagonal is the worst system every invented to measure imaging devices. It's meaningless by itself, and even if accompanied by aspect ratio it makes comparing devices very hard. Area is much better, at least for screens. But area is also trickier for cameras since it's difficult to produce non-round lenses. So a lot of cameras have sensors that are actually larger than the image circle of their lens can cover, but of course this extra area is useless for capturing light. So the only true measure of what a camera system can capture is the image circle, which is a lens measure really, but is the only indicator of the maximum size of the lens that a given sensor can cover.

When it comes to the lenses the necessary aspherical surfaces are quite difficult to manufacture in glass and the material will hardly make any measurable difference - by all means, most prescription glasses nowadays are plastics rather than glass, giving lower weight, lower cost of manufacturing and the possibility to form very advanced progressive lens shapes. When it comes to sensors, measuring the outer circle and the diagonal are essentially the same, since any diagonal will be the same length as the diameter of the outer circle.

Since the lenses limit the aperture to a few millimeters and "distort" the image into the correct shape, a full on daylight shot is probably too much for a naked sensor to handle. Even if it could handle that much brightness, probably we would still get a fully white shot, because, as I said, it needs "treated" data/image when it comes to angle, exposure, focus, otherwise it would only be able to see in a binary way: whether there is light or not in each one of its "pixels".

Measuring the image sensor by the size of a theoretical circle that it can fit in *does* still make sense and will continue to make sense for as long as the lenses are circular. The "1 inch" size of the sensor defines the characteristics of the lens that you will need in order to be able to have a full-frame image without a vignette.

@branbroken Жыл бұрын

Except that vignette is only occuring if you have a sensor larger than the projected image circle and you arent performing any cropping. Most manufacturors are intentionally doing the opposite and ensuring they have the sharpest portions of the image circle filling the sensor.

Can you check the projected image circle of the lens? It may take a crop of the 1in sensor, to reduce the size of lens required. The active area of the sensor should be compared, not the raw silicon.

Fun Fact about 1inch Sensor's It's a name from very early days before digital Sensors even where a thing. The first Cameras with sensors worked similar to a tube TV and the "1 Inch" refers to the diameter of the tube, in other words the sensor has to be smaller than 1 inch Edit: He explains it later in the video, commented earlier

@mumiemonstret Жыл бұрын

They should have updated the sensor size standard the same as they did for displays. A 21" CRT monitor has a much smaller viewing area than a 21" LCD and we quickly got used to it. The obvious solution is to abandon imperial units altogether. There will be no doubt what a 15 mm sensor means.

Cool to see such a large sensor in a phone and the actual sensor in the video! I wonder if the lens totally covers it. The recent Sony camera phone with the same sized sensor managed only a portion with the optics they used. 8:22 Yeah, I do think camera sensors should be measured differently. I'd say crop factor is fine (where the commonly known36x24mm "full-frame" sensor is 1x) though it doesn't account for aspect ratio. Or simply stating dimensions like 36x24mm but it's not the easiest thing to vocalize, especially when the dimensions aren't whole numbers which is often the case.

This is not that sensor in Xperia I-Pro (1" and not all the sensor size was used.) This is totally new sensor from Sony and debuts in this phone. It has yet to come to Sony's next flagship phone and they will then make full use of it. This is first time we see this sensor ☺

I am a fan of your videos. Great content. Here is a challenge for you. You already have a functioning phone but without a camera now. How about plucking a camera out of another phone that is no longer functional after your test but cameras are still ok. I am sure you have someone that you can colab with on this if needed.

Did you know that 1-inch sensors are actually way smaller than 1-inch? The diagonal of these sensors only measures 0.63″ and we can blame the old cathode-ray tubes (CRT) technology for this misleading marketing technique.

Great video, very fun and informative! DPReviewTV did a video recently about sensor sizes. Other channels and sites have pointed this out in the past. It's my opinion sensors should be advertised by area. So a "I inch" sensor would be known by it's area in mm (approx. 10 X 13mm ,being generous again) so it's area would be 130mm. Advertisers and camera companies could call it a 130 sensor. Seems reasobaly sensible and a lot more accurate!

@ThaexakaMavro Жыл бұрын

1 inch sensor has nothing to do with one inch in size its confusing i know ! The name of a 1" digital sensor should more accurately be read as "one inch video camera tube equivalent" sensor. Current digital image sensor size descriptors are the video camera tube equivalency size, not the actual size of the sensor. For example, a 1" sensor has a diagonal measurement of 16 mm.

The whole thing about 1 inch being with how big of a circle the sensor can fit in is all well and good UNLESS YOU SHOW A PICTURE OF A 1x1 INCH SENSOR THAT ISN'T IN THE PHONE... It's literally not even the same shape.

@OXIR Жыл бұрын

Well yeah, most image sensors are 3:4 I guess. But in my opinion it still should be measured either side by side or diagonal from corner to corner. Measuring by the lens or module doesn't make sense to me. In the end, the sensors don't capture the whole circle of light that travels through the lens but it captures a rectangle from it.

1" sensor is different from specific 1x1 sensor. You are comparing apple to pear as one is sensor for most standard format 3:4 and the other sensor is specifically 1:1 format. they are both 1" but for different picture format and if you use 1x1 sensor for 3:4 format photos you only use part of that sensor that is equal to standard 1" sensor
