The article presents the results of laboratory studies of the effect of volume concentration of suspended particles in contrast to the luminous slits image obtained by smartphone cameras of SAMSUNG Galaxy A3 and Honor 8 Lite. Experimentally it was found that a pattern of change in contrast to the luminous slits image from the volumetric concentration of suspended particles appears under ambient light. The pattern of contrast change can be expressed by an exponential function. The correlation coefficient is 0.97. Cigarette smoke was used as suspended particles.
