Mobile photography has become one of the biggest drivers of lying on smartphones. Sometimes with the sensor technology itself, the other with the technology software e artificial intelligence and also about what this software is capable of accomplishing in highly advanced processes.
One of the latest fashion is to put more cameras in the back so that we can do more things more. How many cameras? Yes it depends on the manufacturer, but the trend is available as many as possible, which is very common to see phones with four cameras behind them.
It is important to remember that most cameras do not equal the best quality, but there are many ways to take photos, where the quality of each sensor is compromised in that mode and rarely adds up. However, multidisciplinary practice has become an inevitable practice.
It is so insoluble that it is still a problem for cell phone manufacturers. Especially for Tony, which is very important.
The Sons admit they have problems producing so many senses
The mobile market is a good opportunity for Sony, even though the fact that the product has less and less potential as a mobile manufacturer. The reason for Tony's success in this case lies in the cellular image, and its senses have for years been the best option for almost any manufacturer, especially in the high-end.
However, this success is now becoming harder, and the need for photographic sensors is increasing at incredible rates. The reason is not that many cell phones are sold (since the market is stable), but this includes many cameras.
If previously it was common for a cell phone to have two or three cameras between the front and the back, this is now normal that each cell has four to six sensors. The huge increase in demand has led to the semiconductor business becoming too big for Sony, outweighing the benefits of Playstation.
«If we look at how things are going, even if after a large investment we increase our capacity, it may not be enough said Terushi Shimizu, Tony's senior vice president. "We have to apologize to consumers because we can't do enough."
Difficulties for some, opportunities for others
Or at first this may seem counter-intuitive to the market for mobile devices, in end-to-end products such as Xiaomi, realme or Huawei relying on part of its innovations in the capabilities of the manufacturers. And if Sony can't make enough sensors, the other will have to do it. And if there is nothing you can do, Many manufacturers will have to turn around and install a few cameras.
The inability to meet the need for senses has both positive and negative consequences.
In the case of mobile photography and multiple sensors, it is highly likely that Sony will eventually offer its services to advanced sensors such as the new IMX 586 and IMX 686, a camera that will have many high-end mobiles next year. After all, when production is limited, it makes sense that it does not harm the most profitable models.
The camera your next cell phone will have
Sony has shown in video the capabilities of its next mobile camera. The Sony IMX686 64 Mpx will be on many of the best phones of 2020.
This restriction is important, because as of May 2019, Tony had a 51% market share, a statistic that could change in the coming months. Samsung is looking for leadership and in terms of quality they are already lacking in sensors such as ISOCELL Bright HMX at 108 Mpx. On the other hand, for secondary sensors, the difficulty of Sony can be a good opportunity for Omnivision.
What is clear, it seems, is that by 2020 we will stop seeing an incredible increase in the number of cameras that can have a cell phone.
