April 19th, Huawei's Pura 70 series features ultra-high-speed flash photography across the board, allowing users to capture swift moments with ease, without the hassle of intricate settings.

Today, Huawei's Terminal BG CTO, Bruce Lee, took on the role of a gold-standard customer service representative, providing an online explanation of the principles behind ultra-high-speed flash photography.

Lee pointed out that this time, it wasn't simply a matter of increasing shutter speed to avoid motion blur issues; instead, a new generation of super-focused imaging systems was employed. s_10b548edfca34c4c8e40d865eefc418f.png In addition to delivering an ultra-large aperture, it combines with Huawei's pioneering XD Motion engine to achieve real-time dual-exposure motion blur restoration, bringing the ability to capture high-speed swift shots. s_d615b64fce0d4e59a43b7c579b8871ae.png It's described that when capturing fast-moving objects, the sensor employs real-time double exposure, with both shutters working simultaneously.

At the moment of capture, the short exposure freezes the details of the subject, while the long exposure retains rich background information. Then, through AI motion vector calculation, the images captured by the short and long exposures are matched for local feature restoration, mitigating motion blur in specific areas, ultimately producing high-quality, clear photos.

"By ensuring both successful capture rates and maximum restoration of details and dynamic range, compared to single-frame capture solutions with simple shutter speed adjustments or dual-frame fusion solutions, the advantages are evident," said Bruce Lee. s_c6e8875f740e49c09a1b6bb2ba66e24f.jpg It's worth mentioning that Huawei recently demonstrated the capturing capabilities of the Pura 70 Ultra through specific scenarios and sample shots.

With the SuperZoom Imaging System and XD Motion engine, it can capture the dynamic moments of racing cars speeding at 300km/h, earning it the title of "king of capture speed." s_469297c86c184b8c91c09e1f12c4e66d.png
