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...

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

The Oscars goes to..........

1st group winner (C)- COLORS LOOK MORE NATURAL.
2nd group winner (C)- COLORS ARE NATURAL AND SHARP.
3rd group winner (A)- PICTURE SHARPNESS, EVENLY SPREAD EVEN AT THE BACKROUND.
4th group winner (A)- 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!!

        Difficult choice because it depends on the type of picture...

            why don't you guys compare these red flower photos with the Photo comparison of k-850i and N-95 which was done previously by gsmarena. from that comparison , its clear that C is Nokia , A is SE , B is Samsung and D is LG. and that's my rating.

              And the final Rank is:
              1º B- Viewty
              2º C- N95
              3º D- K850
              4º A- G600

                Look at the RED in pictures on C. it's the same of the face-off between K850 and N95. And it's for sure from N95. All that white spectrum of de D's pictures reveal one weak point of SE cameras (same problem with K800). D is the K850 (look the article N95xK850).
                A- G600
                B- Viewty
                C- N95
                D- K850

                  Although B is bit noisy, gives good details, color and focus.
                  B will be the winner.

                        to greg

                        the price should be a phone! and gsmarena should open a contest to pick the right phone from a picture and call it gsmarena contest.

                        i think that the winner name should declared after the end ot the contest.

                          C shows the best image quality and color reproduction except for the macro on the flower where B shows the best detail.

                              i think, no i am sure that the winner of this photo shootout is C,it give us verry good pictures, and we can see the details in the crop picture.

                                1. c (best overall, though some shots are better for A, esp. building)
                                2. a
                                3. d
                                4. b (crap, noisy, fringed, worst color reproduction)

                                    In most cases B and C gives more detailed images.
                                    But B is little noisy(no processing, i think), and C is smooth with details.

                                        I like C the most. Well, in the last picture it does a poor job, but in the others it is a winner. B comes close behind him, the rest are crap according to me.
