Grand 8 megapixel shootout: The latest and greatest

Gsmrena have posted an article comparing the cameras of the Sony Ericsson C905, Samsung i8510 INNOV8, Samsung M8800 Pixon and LG KC910 Renoir. Here is the final conclusion.



There we are then, the 8 megapixel shootout is over and the crossfire is about to begin. Doing all those tests was fun but it was hard too. Now that there's seemingly the simplest thing left to do, we'd rather sit back and let everyone do their own math.

It was our best effort - and our pleasure - to weigh up and compare all there is to a cameraphone. We know there's no way for every single feature on our list to be equally relevant to all users alike. So, if you're about to make up your mind, we suggest you only look at those that are most important to you.

However we can still offer you a quick summary of our overall impression, without getting into numbers.

If you are looking for the universal performer, then the Samsung INNOV8 is your definite choice with excellent image results. Besides first-rate stills, it also delivers VGA video recording 30fps or slow motion QVGA videos at 120fps and a large display.

If you are after the best camera interface and probably the best camera handling and controls, then Sony Ericsson C905 is your game.

If you're really into touchscreen and massive high-res displays, the more balanced cameraphone seems to be LG Renoir with a load of camera features and great image results. It's also fully geared in terms of video recording with VGA@30fps, slow motion QVGA videos at 120fps of time-lapse QVGA clips.

While the Samsung Pixon falls behind the Renoir in terms of image quality and camera features, it definitely outperforms the LG mobile with superior user experience thanks to the well organized interface and capable video recording with WVGA@30fps and high-speed QVGA vidz.

We really hope you enjoyed this 8 megapixel shootout as much as we did. Forgive us if the article tends to be a bit technical at times, but explaining the basics of photography and camera construction is pretty much out of the scope of this article.
