I wonder if they could adapt a cell phone to the Hubble telescope? Wouldn’t that be cool!

The idea is not new but putting a Leica lens on Xiaomi 12S Ultra at $41K is something for marketing pundits and us UHHoggers to think out loud. Or they may just be testing the waters. Your thoughts. It’s on youtube.


How does "barf" sound?

This seemed to be a good idea at the time. Then Motorola upgraded their phones and the Hasselblad attachment became an artifact.

We actually had somewhat strange combinations of equipment in the early days of Digital Photography.
The Kodak 420 series,
With a Kodak Digital back appended to a Nikon Film SLR.
In later days, Kodak actually had a camera adapter that plugged into a cellphone. Motorola had a Cellphone with a camera back that would clamshell onto one of their high end cellphones.
I do see a future for an interchangeable lens smartphone.
It would make more sense with a reasonable cost lens system.

Got this on my news feed:
https://www.photolari.com/cuanto-paga-xiaomi-a-leica-12-s-ultra-concept-opinion/

According to that article, neither Leica nor Xiaomi will ever mass produce that monstrosity. It's a marketing stunt.

It's just a concept and a few units were built and sent to select influencers.

Can I get a translation. It’s in Spanish.
