Know about ISO and Shutter speed in camera
ISO is basically defined as a camera setting that helped to brings captured images brighten or darken. In simple terms, as you increase your ISO number, your photos will grow progressively brighter. ISO can help you capture images in darker environments, or be more flexible about your aperture and shutter speed settings.
What is ISO?
ISO controls the sensitivity of the camera’s image sensor to light. It is one of three elements that, together with the shutter speed and aperture, form the exposure triangle.
ISO settings
A low ISO number makes your camera less sensitive to light and gives your photo a fine grain. On the other hand, a higher ISO number will make the sensor more sensitive, making the image brighter, which is ideal for low-light situations. But there is a downside, increasing ISO increases grain.
ISO: 50 / f1.6 / SS: 1/800 s
ISO: 100 / f1.6 / SS: 1/800 s
ISO: 200 / f1.6 / SS: 1/800 s
ISO and quality
A lower ISO will produce a better quality photo with better color, a better dynamic range, and less digital noise. A higher ISO generally produces grainy or noise-like images with less contrast and less vivid colors. It is recommended to keep the ISO as low as possible to get the highest possible quality.
ISO: 1600 / f1.6 / SS: 1/1000 s
ISO: 3200 / f1.6 / SS: 1/1000 s
ISO: 6400 / f1.6 / SS: 1/1000 s
It is possible that you will not see much noise even at an ISO value of 6,400, because the Huawei P30 Pro performs very well in low light and can even go up to an ISO of 409,600. This allows you to take good photos even in extreme darkness.

ISO: 409,600 / f1.6 / SS: 0.5 s
ISO-409600
What is Shutter Speed?
Shutter speed is one of the three sides of our exposure triangle, along with ISO and aperture. The shutter speed is also known as the exposure time. It is the time that the shutter of your camera is open and the image sensor is exposed to light when taking a picture.
Shutter settings
In-camera pro mode, the shutter speed is displayed with an “S”. It is usually measured in whole seconds or in fractions of a second. The whole second is usually written with “or s, for example, 1” or 1s is for a second exposure. For fractions, 1/4 means a quarter of a second.
Huawei phones with pro mode can handle a fast shutter speed up to 1 / 4000th of a second. You can increase it even more if you work in automatic mode, as long as you shoot in a very bright environment. The cheat sheet below will help you better understand the effect of a faster shutter speed (right) and a slower shutter speed (left).
ISO: 50 / f1.6 / S: 1 / 1700s (faster shutter speed freezes motion)
ISO: 50 / f1.6 / S: 0.8s (a slower shutter speed introduces motion blur or motion blur)

Huawei is getting ready to release a new super-thin phone called the Mate 70 Air. Some details about this phone have already been leaked online, and now a new picture has appeared showing what it looks like.
What the phone looks like
A promotional poster for the Huawei Mate 70 Air was leaked today. The phone looks similar to other phones in Huawei’s Mate 70 family, but it’s much thinner.
The back of the phone has a round camera area with Huawei’s XMAGE camera logo on it. The edges of the phone appear to be shiny and polished. The back cover has a textured surface, similar to another Huawei model called the Mate 70 Pro+.
What’s inside the phone
There isn’t much information available yet, but the Mate 70 Air might be a mid-priced phone. Early reports said it would have 12GB of memory and either 256GB or 512GB of storage space. However, newer information suggests it will actually have 16GB of memory.
The phone is expected to have a large 6.9-inch screen. It will also have a high-quality main camera.
Other features
Unlike Apple’s iPhone Air, the Huawei Mate 70 Air will have a slot for a physical SIM card. The phone will run on Huawei’s HarmonyOS 5.1 software. It will come in three colors: black, white, and gold.
Huawei is expected to launch this phone in November, around the same time as its Mate 80 series.
Tipster Digital Chat Station has confirmed that the Chinese tech giant Huawei will release new phones called the Mate 80 series in November. These new phones will have better designs, cameras, and speed.
The company is expected to compete with Apple’s new iPhone 17 phones. Huawei will make four different Mate 80 phones: the regular Mate 80, Mate 80 Pro, Mate 80 Pro+, and Mate 80 RS. Each phone will have different cameras. The regular Mate 80 will have a 50-megapixel camera.
The Pro version will have a bigger 50-megapixel camera. The Pro+ and RS models will have even bigger 50-megapixel cameras.
The Pro model might have a flat screen and face recognition. The Pro+ and RS models might have curved screens that bend more.
The best phone, the Mate 80 RS, might have a 6.9-inch screen with special technology.
This screen should be brighter, use less battery power, and last longer than normal phone screens. Huawei might also use strong titanium metal for the frame and special glass on the back. Inside the phones, there will be a new chip called the Kirin 9030. The battery might be bigger than 6000mAh and charge very fast – 100W with a wire and 80W without wires. The phones might work with 5G internet and satellite communication.
The phones will use Huawei’s own software called HarmonyOS. This might work better with other Huawei devices and have more AI features. Some people think these improvements will help Huawei compete better with Apple, especially in battery life, communication, and smart features.
A Chinese company called HiSilicon Semiconductor just changed who’s in charge. The old boss, Xu Zhijun, stepped down from his job as the legal representative and chairman. Now the company’s CEO, Gao Ji, is taking over these roles.
Xu has been working at Huawei since 1993 and still has other important jobs there – he’s a vice chairman and sometimes serves as the rotating chairman. Him leaving this position is probably just Huawei moving people around to different jobs within the company.
HiSilicon is completely owned by Huawei and makes computer chips. This change in leadership might mean Huawei is trying to make things work better.
HiSilicon started in October 2004 when Huawei took its computer chip design team and turned it into its own company. The main office is in Shenzhen, but they also have offices in Beijing, Shanghai, and other cities in China.
