Nokia 808 PureView blind test: The sum of all pixels

14 June 2012
The Nokia 808 PureView has finally landed in swirling storms of hype. And of course, it wasn't given a chance to catch a breath. We didn't meet it empty-handed either. We had a finger on the shutter of some mean cameraphones and an EVIL digicam...

                    F: Is pure view. Reddish colour tone are Nokia's camera sensors distinctive feature.
                    E: Is Olypus digicam image.

                      Out of all the images'E'is surely the best(smoothness & sharpness well balanced although a bit less in colors,due to good light condition one can see the trees at the b/g well ) as one can clearly see from the maroon color of the roof,'A'(some details and continuity are missing),'D'(excessive sunlight effects making the image more brighter but lost our natural image)'B'(more sharpen and sunlight effects though lesser than 'D')'F'(colors are more but less light forces it behind E ),C(no need 2 comment) E>

                        F seems the best of all with the largest amount of detail captured. I guess it is the Olympus. Color looks warm though.
                        E has good color reproduction. Is it the Pureview? I am disappointed that it does not capture as much detail as F.

                          I think the Nokia 808's capture is either Sample B or D...
                          They're the crispiest in terms of pixel.

                            E is the best
                            F second best
                            B third best

                              E Pure view
                              F Olympus
                              D > ( B~=~A ) > C
                              C - very bad...
                              A - focus not right, but A > B in colors, detail
                              B - too much sharpening, oversaturated (probably Samsung)
                              D - the best of A and B combined - if this is the N8 I'm not buying the PureView (I have the N8)

                                    I vote for E! Hope it's the Olympus one and none of any of the smartphones. Hehe... Next to E, I like F but it's to warm...

                                      E is the best in details sharpness and natural colors, F is close. To make my decision I had to zoom in the photos with the forest background on the left edge and, for exmample, there you can see that there are some letters in "TECHN" that are much clear/sharper in E than in F.
