I’m glad finally someone took the time to make a photo comparison test like this. It really proves my point as to why I think camera phones aren’t quite there yet, and manufactures need to stop bumping megapixels and start increasing quality. You REALLY should check out this comparison if you’re going to be in the market for a mobile phone and the feature you care most about is the image quality of your shots.
Take a guess which device took this picture, then go to the article.
I find striking difference between each at every camera represented here. I’ve only ever compared my Treo to my Nikon. That’s always been a striking difference. The improvement of the Zeiss optics as opposed to the 1.2 megapixel in the Treo is, to me, quite striking. It’s clear to me that the photo tools in the Treo have been left in the dust by Nokia. The Treo isn’t state of the art and isn’t even what I’d call reasonably good any longer.
The N73 feels like a digital camera in the hand. It’s a great pocket camera, with a nice flash, good zoom, and has done a nice job for me.
The N93 feels like a digital video camera. It’s larger and heavier, although I don’t really find it much larger than the Treo. The N93 is far superior for video (more on that later), and for those into macro photography or wanting to do any closeup work, it might be the better choice. I can’t measure quality in any quantitave way, but the reds in the N93 shots seem closer to the red of the Nikon shot to me.
