I got this thing while I was a student at SUNY Stony Brook. Yes I’m a 20 year old male with a teddy bear, got a problem?
Nokia N93 and N93i were set to "close up" mode and color was left on automatic.
Canon was set to "macro mode" and everything else was automatic.

From what I can tell the N93 has sharper pictures while the N93i has less noise and less detail so it seems.
Canon is of course kicking some major ass.
UPDATE: As I was writing this blog post the thought came to me that I should try and see what sort of quality I can expect if I just left both the N93 and N93i in "automatic" mode for everything. Let’s see what happens:

My hunch seems to be right: close up mode should not be used … ever!
