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...

1 picture: C

3 picture: C
4 picture: C
5 picture: C
6 picture: C
7 picture: A

Winner is: C

pictures of B and D have too much white color, are too brightened, A is less brightened. in my opinion
i think the best is C.
for me of course
what's the model of C camera we'll have to wait.

        I think N95 8GB is the clear winner. Because it has a professional camera lens. I'm wondering why SE can't use these kind of lens. (But Sony using them in their camera/camcorder.)

            "A" is the Best..the rest doesn't matter!

            well, It has to be this way...!

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

            Yeah, that's my ranking!!
            I must say, i'm surprised at the sharpness levels of "B". really amazing n does deserve some praises.
            "C" is too vivid and oversaturated.
            and "D" is hopeless, no details and dull. Samsung obviously.

            Ok, here is the BIG Surprise..!!

            A = Sony Ericsson K850i
            B = LG KU920 Viewty
            C = Nokia N95-8GB
            D = Samsung G600

            Yes, It has to be that way !!! Believe Me, You'll know when the results are out.

                  1)C-A-D-B.
                  2)AorB-AorB-C-D("A" more precise, "B" better color)
                  3)A-B-C-D.
                  5)A-B-D-C.

                  "A" maybe k850...
                  "B" maybe n95...
                  "C"to much contrast i think... dont like it but is not that bad
                  "D" the worst. my old 6630 have more precise color that this...
                  GSMARENA make one of this whit nokia n82, and pictures in the dark please :)

                        HI GUYZ
                        Iam an artist as well as a photographer . so my voting is based on this experience.

                        The Oscars goes to..........C(SONY ERICSSON)!!!
                        2ND PLACE TO B (NOKIA)
                        3RD ...TO A (SAMSUNG)
                        AND WORST PHONE D(LG)


                        1st group winner (C)- COLORS LOOK MORE NATURAL.
                        2nd group winner (C)- COLORS ARE NATURAL AND SHARP.
                        3rd group winner (C)- PICTURE SHARPNESS, EVENLY SPREAD EVEN AT THE BACKROUND.
                        4th group winner (C)- SHARP AND LESS NOISE EFFECT.
                        5th group winner (A)- SHARP AND LESS OF NOISE EFFECT.
                        6th group winner (C)- NO NOISE BUT A LIILE UNDEREXPOSED.
                        7th group winner (B)- SHARPNESS(VERY CLEAR).

                        But i guess there would be a close tie between the sony ericsson and nokia .I prefer the sonyericsson

                        cybershot series over other brands as they specially made for photography purpose.

                        Nokia has always a bluish effect whereas i prefer the warm effect of Sony ericsson!!

                        Please not that iam a Nokia owner but soon shall change to Sony ericsson. Crtics are welcome!!

                              i m sure C is N95 because its colors are too vivid and surely D is SE k850

                                B D A C is ma order, B being best and c worst

                                  It is obvious for me that C wins vivid and clear fotos.
                                  My opinion :
                                  1. C
                                  2. A
                                  3. B
                                  4. D

                                    A produces pretty realistic, properly exposed images but has a tinge of yellow(especially in white regions). B produces washed out, artificially coloured, highly saturated, overexposed images.
                                    D did a great job in close up shots, but images in sunlight are slightly overexposed with the background usually being completely ignored. C has good saturation anf exposure levels. Decent shots in all modes. Pictures are acceptably sharp and good enough for any non-professional photographer.

                                    My winner is C followed by A, then D and B.
                                    and I guess, C=Nokia, A=LG, D=Sony Ericsson, B=Samsung

                                      A's edges are very strange. A should be G600
                                      B and D have purple fringes. B might be Viewty.
                                      C's sharpness is not natural. C is N95.
