Among the newly released domestic mobile phones this year, Xiaomi 12SUltra is so popular. It cooperates with Leica and is equipped with a 1-inch super large base aperture, as well as a 48-megapixel periscope lens and an ultra-wide-angle lens. No matter from which angle you look at it, Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra is extremely impressive in shooting. So compared with iPhone13ProMax, how big is the gap in night photography? Next, let’s compare the following sets of night photos! #小米12Sultra#
First, let’s take a look at the first set of outdoor close-up night shots. Both phones shoot plants. Under the surrounding lights, you can see that the plant leaves photographed by Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra are very bright, and the colors appear more realistic. The highlight effect of plant leaves taken by iPhone 13 Pro Max is a bit overexposed, which makes the leaves lose their sense of reality. In fact, the pictures taken by Apple mobile phones have always been realistic, but the effect taken in night scene mode this time seems unsatisfactory.
From the comparison of this set of night shots, we can see that they are all shooting plants in flower beds, and Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra does a better job in terms of details. Judging from the photos taken by Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra, the colors of the petals and leaves are bright and lifelike, with rich details, and the light does not cause too much interference to the plants in the scene. The leaves photographed by the iPhone 13 Pro Max are a bit yellowed. In fact, this is the color difference caused by the lighting. After losing the sense of realism, the effect is greatly reduced. Both the realism and details are not as good as those of the Xiaomi Mi 12 SUltra.
Comparing the effects of this set of indoor night shots, the colors of the ground and ceiling shot by Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra are extremely realistic. There are also very strong lights around, but the colors of the picture do not interfere with each other, and the overexposure is handled better. The ceiling and floor taken by iPhone 13 Pro Max are a little yellowish, which is actually caused by the lighting. However, the details in the middle of the scene are very rich, and the two phones have their own merits.
The difference in night shooting effect is quite obvious. Although the Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra has the Leica lens blessing, the items glowing with green light in the middle of the scene have color smearing. This is mainly caused by poor highlight position and overexposure. The iPhone 13 Pro Max is very good at rendering green flood-lit items, with brighter colors, no smearing and exposure, and richer overall details.
In this comparison of outdoor playground night shots, Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra performed better. You can see that the colors of the amusement equipment in the scene are real and bright, but the ground appears to lose more details under the light, and the realism is not so obvious. The color of the device taken by iPhone13ProMax is darker, but the ground is not disturbed by too much light. It can be clearly seen that the gaps between the ground are very clear and natural.
Comparing the effect of outdoor distant views between the two mobile phones, Xiaomi 12SUltra captured less sky impurities, reproduced the Ferris wheel very realistically, and controlled the exposure better. The sky captured by the iPhone 13 Pro Pax is also very clean, but the Ferris wheel is affected by roadside lights, and the details are not rich enough, and it is partially yellowed, which is reflected in the leaves next to it.
In this set of night shot comparisons, the performance of Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra and iPhone 13 Pro Max are relatively close, but the difference can be seen through careful comparison. The ground of the amusement equipment shot by Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra is relatively bright, but some of the gaps between the bricks are not very clear under the light. The color contrast of the amusement equipment shot by iPhone13ProMax is very high, and the light and dark effects are better.
Finally, let’s compare the zoom shots. It is obvious that the pictures taken by iPhone13ProMax have more noise, and the clock tower in the scene is very dark, and the details are lost. At this time, Xiaomi Mi 12SUltra absorbs better light due to its large base aperture, so the white top of the bell tower is very realistic.
Summary: In the comparison of night photography between Xiaomi 12SUltra and iPhone 13ProMax, the gap in some scenes is relatively large. Xiaomi 12SUltra has excellent performance with its 1-inch super large base and Leica lens, and the night photography effect is quite good.Although the iPhone 13 Pro Max performs better in night shooting scenes, its shortcomings are also obvious. Dear readers, which mobile phone do you think is better for night photography?
