Smartphones, dual cameras, dual camera

Dual camera set-ups are fast catching up as a trend in smartphones these days. The year so far has seen many devices – flagship or mid-tier – sporting dual cameras. The latest offerings from Asus, InFocus and Huaweihave added to the excitement around such camera set-ups, assuring the camera game in the smartphone industry is here to stay.

ne of the common dual camera set-ups, mostly employed in budget and mid-range devices, this set-up consists of two different sensors – primary lens with large sensor and secondary lens with depth-sensing sensor. In this set-up, the primary camera captures the shot while the depth-sensing sensor measures the background and other objects. The image processed through the primary camera is then treated with the information retrieved through the depth-sensing sensor to create a single image where the object in focus remains sharp and the background gets blurred, creating the so-called Bokeh effect.

Bharti Airtel, Airtel

STOCK MARKET - Bharti Airtel has hit a two-year high of Rs 441, up 2% in intra-day trade, extending its past four day gain on the BSE, after the company on Friday, October 13, said it had agreed with Tata  Teleservices Limited (TTSL) and Tata Teleservices Maharashtra (TTML), to combine their consumer mobile business (Tata CMB) with Bharti.

The stock is trading at its highest level since July 2015. It past one week, it rallied 16% as compared with 2.3% gain in the S&P BSE Sensex.

The transaction is subject to requisite regulatory and other approvals and expected to take 6-9 months to close. According to the agreement, Bharti will acquire Tata CMB's India's operations in nineteen circles, including the transfer of all assets (including spectrum) and customers, on a debt-free cash-free basis.

"The acquisition will strengthen Bharti's spectrum holdings and add around 40 million subscribers to the company's leading market position in India's highly competitive mobile telecommunications market, a credit  positive," said Annalisa Di Chiara,  Moody's Vice President and Senior Credit Officer in a note.

"While consolidation activity is positive for the industry in the long-term, we still expect competition to remain intense over the next 12-18 months as leading operators -- like Bharti, Vodafone India and Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited - look to protect and grow market share," the ratings agency said.
