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...

    C,B,A,D (NOKIA, SE, LG, SAMS) - I'm a SE fan... but Nokia wins... betera details in general, bat not so in macro... WERE ARE THE FALSH PHOTOS (night, with/out light...)? SE would have won then...

        I'd posted a comment earlier and when i saw the pics. again then i was not able to figure out between B & C... But i guess one them is K850i... Anyways, but the winner is from B or C... Where as the worst is D and A is N95, it's not that good guys! The winner is surely from B and C... Hope To See Result Soon!

            1.c
            2.a
            3.b
            4.d
            c and a are close but i suppose that C is k850i more natural colors
            b is best in Macro mode and that is the LG
            and last but not least D is the samsung which sucks in every aspect.
            I will like a comparison between the N82 k850 g800

              ehm... i think A is a N95.... pumped up colors and a lot of sharpening is a tradition for nokia phones....

                Well it depends mostly on the pics and it´s quite difficult to choose a winner among these camera phones.
                well the most balanced is:
                1-C
                2-A
                3-B
                4-D

                it depends most on the pictures exposure etc, some pictures C is the worst specially in macro ones when you really miss the lack of authethic colours, B is the winner in the aspect
                A is the best on number 4
                D is the worst never takes advantage in any single photo in my opinion.
                Still i prefer my Pentax Optio Z5 digital camera, and when i need a camera phone i always have my Benq-Siemens S88 with 2MP takes excelent pictures for a cell phone and thats enough for me :)

                  D, A and a lot of fanboy's comments...

                  ...are RUBBISH!!!


                  C & B are the best quality photos.

                  Natural colors, only a little of added sharpen. Low noise and low artifact.

                  D is the worst. Very ugly pictures...i think this is LG....

                  A is a good camera, but pumped colors and a lot of sharpening is deprecable. Bad.


                  For me:

                  1- C

                  2- B

                  3- A

                  4- D

                    C (superb colors, details, BEST)
                    A (good)
                    B (good in macro)
                    D (worst, overexposed, noise)

                      B is K850i and surely it's the winner as N95 pumps up the colours where as K850i shows the real and clear picture... K850i picture is lighter and more closer to reality, N95 picture is brighter as it pumps up colours and the picture is artificial... As Simple As That!!! And Samsung is better than LG... HENCE PROVED:- K850i is the best choice!

                              .... and i guess C is K850, A is N95, B is Samsung, D is Motorola. even thuogh i wish N95 was the winner.

                                So my ranking is this way:
                                1st:C
                                2nd:A
                                3rd:D
                                4th:B

                                Probably C is nokia N95!

                                  Last is D
                                  Misstype sorry.

                                    C - 1 (building and flower pics a bit dark, but cleanest overall)
                                    A - 2 (tied "B" but almost always looks cleaner and less noisy)
                                    B - 3 (last picture it does best job with macro, but noisy)
                                    C - 4 (always the blurriest and softest on detail)

                                    I prefer the cleanest/sharpest shot possible, noise and blurriness is difficult to remove, and color saturation is easily corrected.
