Two Megapixel Cameraphone Shootout

Posted by Zonk on from the two-two-megapixels-ah-ah-ah dept.

Siddharth Raja writes "It's been almost exactly a year since MobileBurn published their last 'horribly un-scientific' test of 1MP cameraphones. This time, they take the latest two megapixel models from Sony Ericsson and Nokia and put them through their paces. The tests cover aspects ranging from lens distortion and contrast to exposure. Nokia's phone uses a custom lens solution from Carl-Zeiss, but it looks like the Sony Ericsson phone still has better optics. On the flip-side, the Nokia phone is better with colours and calculating the white balance."

    Expect to see an sharp increase in the number of lockerroom and bathroom pics.

      Not to mention the quality. You've never looked better in a towel than you do on a phone w/a Carl Zeiss lens.

    "almost exactly a year"

    Brilliant! That statement almost exactly makes sense.
