the sony mobile cameras have actually been a disappointment...the picture quality is poorer than other brands...its actually a bigg let down...i never expected this from sony...i myself own xperia u, but the image quality here also is not so good...and also have seen image quality in xperia z as well..but its poor in comparison to other phones like samsung or apple...they should improve the camera quality or else they wont come up soo easily....for any person who owns a nice flagship phone expects basic things like user experience and camera quality to capture some memories..but if the camera lets it down then its a bigg disappointment..i am a bigg fan of sony...so just wanna see the brand in a better position..plz improve the cam and bring it at par to apple or samsung...

                Hope that Sony can do something to solve Xperia Z's overheating problem.

Probably you don't own an Xperia Z, because many people who own an Xperia Z, stated it has good quality, its only slightly below sharpness on the S4's camera, which can be achieved by future updates!

                                      sony must fix the camera noise and oversaturated on xperia SP with new algorithm and much more..
