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...

            Here's my opinion:
            C - Best overall. Most detailed, yet not to contrasty pictures. Very inconsistent macro performance: Petal shot is brilliant but stamen shot looks underexposed.
            B - Very close to C.
            D - Too soft. A lot of color cast.
            A - Way to much contrast, yet fine detail gets smeared (branches look like a mess)

              I think there should have been a picture taken in low light and in the dark to test the strength of each cameraphone's flash function.

                when will the results be out????
                in my opinion C A B D

                i checked the photos on other sites and think that the photos named C are taken from N95
                i may be wrong but they appear close to n95

                  I think C, A, B, D.

                  Is it just me or does anyone else think that B was the best for the last macro pic?

                    I would like to vote for C as best camera phone and I hope it's the new SE K850. Thank you!

                        I actually think the best is LG Viewty, which is C.
                        When you results come out, you'd all be surprised.
                        Trust me.

                                5 Megapixel cameras? Obviously the pictures are not shown at full resolution, or taken at lower resolution. I wonder if that is a fair comparison? At this reduced resolution we could have compared any camera phone in the market.

                                Even if C appears to be the winner, its macro is really too poor. Therefore no winner this time, sorry!
