5 megapixel face-off: Vox populi

05 December 2007
It’s been a while since our last cameraphone shootout and you know how much we love them. With all those 5 megapixel cameraphones around, our hands were just itching to make a grand 5 megapixel face-off with as many of the current 5 megapixel cameraphones as possible. The stars in this episode of our Shootout series...

Is this a thread to GUESS which phones are A, B, C or D?????
You guys make me laugh!!!

There are similar comparisons in other sites and over there G600 came a bit ahead of N95 and 'surprisingly' K850 couldn't live up to its CyberShot expectation. So ya wait till GSMarena reveal who is who and lets not be stupid.

      guys d0nt expect that gsmarena will p0st which is the best to the w0rst 5mp ph0ne. But instead they'll an0ther thread like the thread they made a while ago for the best h0liday guide. The 4 ph0nes that inv0lvd here were also on that thread.

      And reading fr0m their t0p ph0ne ch0ice is the n95 8gb. Its clear the n95 8gb beats them all.

          I'm not gonna attempt to guess which pic belongs to which camera but what I can say is this:
          A is the best.
          C and D are real close but I would have to go with C for second
          B is definitely the worse. The colours were too bright giving it unrealistic look plus a few of the pics lacked the details you would expect from a 5mp camera.

            Here's my gues, and I'm 99% sure it's correct:
            A - Lg
            B - Samsung
            C - Nokia
            D - Sony Ericsson

              B = no doubt it's SE
              A = LG Viewty
              D = G600
              A= N95 8Gb(no doubt as it has the most exagerated colors among them three, although some shots reveal natural colors not pale unlike the three) but in macro B is the King, the most natural in colors and the best in details even in a very close distance where N95 Make it very hard to focus.

              Winner could be:
              C = N958Gb for infinite focusing, sometimes hit and miss colors and more contrast
              B = K850 for excellent macro, period
              A = for natural details close up or not
              D = Weakest because of the weak sensor module samsung has provided

                B is the best set of pictures IMO....

                  My personal vote; 1st A, 2nd D, 3rd B and lastly C.
                  Most of you guys like C but I think the pictures are a bit dark and faded.

                    I want to edit the name of the LG otic of my previous post. The correct is Scheider-Kreuznach.

                      In almost all "rows" picture C is the winner, except the row 5 where the winner is A. I think that:
                      A&C = Nokia or LG, because they are very good optics (Carl Zeiss & Schnider) and in other models with thie optic, there is no very big color lacks!
                      Maybe B = SE.
                      And D = Samsung, because it is the cheapest model of all theese, so it can't be equipted with the best camera!

                        For almost all the pictures I would say A, except for the close-ups. On the first close-up of the flower, picture C is the best and as for the last one, the close-up of the 2nd flower, picture B is the best.

                                We should accept that SAMSUNG phones can take great pictures so:
                                A SAMSUNG G600
                                B LG KU990
                                c NOKIA N95
                                D SE K850

                                  I vote for phone "C". It makes best pictures! On the second place i'd put phone "A". B and D are almost the same quality. But phone C was the best in almoast all cases.
