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...

    Judging on the crops, my view is
    1st: c>a>b>d
    2nd: c>b>a>d
    3rd: a>b>c>d (Colors of c appear fake)
    4th: c>a>b>d
    5th: c>b>a>d
    6th: c>b>a>d
    7th: b>d>c>a (c shows some thing else and a is blurred)

    Overall: C>A>B>D

      B D A C

      C is giving false colors. C is worst. Those nokia fanboys who think C is N95 must have their eyes check. C might be SAMSUNG or LG. Use your mind and eyes. Pink is turned brown and yellow into green. Check the Crops. They are blurry.

          *thumbs up*

          good idea.
          this "blind-test" method will keep those fanboys away.

              C is worst. Colors are false.

                I think c,a,d,b would be the best order. I do hope that the guys GSMArena.com will also have an opinion after the survey is over. They're good at it.

                  I think "C" is the best. Balanced color, and focus.

                      Minus the macro shots A, C, B, D
                      Overall C, A, B, D

                        I think the following
                        Pic Better ones
                        1 -A
                        2 -C
                        3 -D
                        4 -C
                        5 -A
                        6 -C
                        7 -B

                          To me quality order seems to be, B (best of the lot), D, A and finally C (worst of the lot).

                            A looks a lot better in all of them except the macro.. but it's really hard to say. D was the worse for me in all pictures. can't wait for names to be revealed.

                              1.C
                              2.B
                              3.A
                              4.D

                                C (the best)
                                A (close 2nd)
                                B (somewhat close 3rd)
                                D (the worst, but still good i think)

                                Of course there were some shots where I felt like A and B looked better than C, but overall I think this is the line up, IMHO.

                                I don't care for brand names either, as I think it's safe to say that many people would vote a particular camera phone just because it's their favorite brand. I like how GSMArena.com is running this test, as it avoids such collisions of reason vs desire.

                                It will be exciting to see which letter corresponds to which phone!

                                      1.A 2.C 3.B 4.D i think gsmarena should also take those pics with a digital cam so we can see the proper colours of the subjects.

                                        I dunno wuts wrong with C, but its colours always look so awkward... it almost seems like it takes a photo of the outlines, then fills in the approximate colours... feels like those old fashioned 256 colours stuff. D looks like the photos are "aging" and lack the bright vibrant colours that C has... I'd say A and B are definetly the best of the bunch. C and D are miserably bad cameras
