When it was revealed recently, the Huawei Mate 20 series offered a refreshed Matrix Camera system with a new 16mm Leica Ultra-Wide Angle Lens, for Triple Rear cameras that not only took detailed wide angle shots but allowed you to go in as close as 2.5cm away from your target. Most smartphones go blurry and have difficulty focusing at 5 to 6 cm away, much less 2.5cm, so this is definitely a big deal for those of you who like to take really close detailed shots.
While this is by no means insurmountable, as most of these other macro smartphone photographers get an additional macro lens, the fact that the Mate 20 series can do this without actually needing any additional lens is revolutionary. Huawei are calling this mode Super Macro and coupled with the AI Scene Recognition, it helps to really bring out the details in your close up photography. Check out some of our samples and see just How close can the Huawei Mate 20 Pro go below.
