      camera's question, 03 Oct 2010HELLO, Can someone please explain me clearly all informa... moreYou are correct in your questions, the art of photography baffles me some times and this is why most people use AUTO.Most of the general public if not all just take a foto and the only adjustment they will ever make is turning on a flash of somekind.

      Real proper photography involves expense and most of that is lenses filters studios lighting etc.What nokia or camerafones are doing is getting the best they can from what they have to work with which is cost and space inside the fone.The n86 lets more light in at lower levels than other camfones on the market thats what they are saying and to me it does a good job.

      Nokias n8 contains the biggest image sensor in a mobile ,its just a chip full of photodetectors either 2,3,5,8,12 etc million of then that capture the light and turn it into electricity pulses.Thats the basics and the bigger the sensor and quality algorithms and good CLEAN lenses make good pictures,whether thats 1MP or 32 MP its not the MEGAPIXELS that make quality thats just allows you to make bigger pictures.

      This is why most people just buy whats reccomended and enjoy snapping fotos and forget whats going on inside the device.

      If you want to go into proper photography like magazines then most will use DSLR cameras but often camerafones give moody different shots that some people enjoy..

            HELLO,

            Can someone please explain me clearly all informations in camera's characteristic?
            I understand what AF (Auto Focus) and Mega Pixel are for.
            But Focal, sensor, large sensor, mechanical shutter, aperture, variable aperture, ISO...
            And mainly, why the cheapest (real) camera made by Kodak, Cannon or Panasonic... Always take by far best and cleaner picture than the one in phones?

            I'd like to have information too about sound characteristics like decibel, sensiblity...

            I think GSMArena must explain all those 'new' characteristics that are now part of new high.ends phone's features.

            Sorry for my english and thank you for reply.

                    Comparison between Nokia and Sony ericsson (SE) :
                    I bought SE W995 two weeks ago after going behind the highly over lighted advertisement of SE w995. And now, I replaced with Nokia n86_8mp. I’m discribing the details that happened between this 2 weeks. I bought the SE w995 after observing the advertisement that : clear bass, clear stereo, 8mp camera, music & volume change by shake control, and more impressed by the brand SONY. These all my expectations totally failed. After using SE w995 for 14 days, I understood why Nokia is market leader. I concluded that 'SONY' will never put its effort to raise the quality of music(in earphone) and camera quality of SE phones because "SONY HAS TO MAINTAIN ITS BIG MARKET OF MUSIC PLAYERS AND DIGITAL CAMERA". Again i want to repeat : "SONY HAS TO MAINTAIN ITS BIG MARKET OF MUSIC PLAYERS AND DIGITAL CAMERA" and will not try to raise the quality of music and camera in SE phones which will affect the BIG MARKET OF SONY MUSIC PLAYERS AND SONY DIGITAL CAMERA. Every mobile buyers should keep this matter always in mind. As i realized after using SE w995, 'clear bass' means 'low bass' and 'clear stereo' means 'low treble'. There is a function of changing volume and track by shake control which is quit useless, u will have to press 'W' button and hold, then shake when walkman is on screen, however direct access buttons are already available. Nokia's 3.2mp carl-zeiss camera phones are far better than its 8mp camera. Useless face detection, smile detection are advertised with over-light. U needn't go after 'Sony' brand as I've described earlier. As i saw in Nokia n86_8mp, its a "SMARTPHONE", its camera is far far far........ better than SE w995. However SE w995 is walkman model, earphone music sound of Nokia n86_8mp is also better than that w995. Unadvertised shake control to mute the incoming call of Nokia n86_8mp is very useful. Amazing radio transmitter, i use it to play songs using mobile, sound output in my home theatre system(with FM) wirelessly, n86 acts as a remote and screen, very very amusing and amazing. I have written my short experience here. If any friend need my further feelings and experiences regarding SE w995 and Nokia n86_8mp, then don't hesitate to mail me : rajesh20277@yahoo.com

                                    I am using this phone since July'2009. It is very very slow. Since July'09 till Sept'10, the OS is crashed on three occassions. In fact i want to dispose this phone even for rs 6500/- and go for any other cheaper phone or HTC, Wild fire. Any Comments from other un lucky victims like me?
