4 most wanted smart phone camera but Nokia Lumia 1020 really good

On "best smart camera phones" debate has continued, Apple iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4 is probably the most popular camera phones, but some photographers may require more powerful hardware, so this year, including the Nokia Lumia 1020 , MOTO X and other new aircraft launched a new round of "smart phone camera war."

In this round of the competition, we can see that the new players have some of the killer: Nokia Lumia 1020 equipped with a 41 million-pixel camera , is currently the highest resolution phone image sensor of a; while MOTO X is adopted 10 million pixel camera, using RGBC sensors can effectively enhance the level of low-light imaging. So, whether the level of new models such as the camera parameters like brisk, and greatly exceeded the older models do? Or through a real shot sample comparison to find out it.

Daytime outdoor landscapes

Outstanding landscape photos need to express the magnificent big scene at the same time, to bring more detail, so the pixel is a key. Apple iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4 performance relatively common, especially compared to the Nokia Lumia 1020, the latter's high pixel delivers amazing detail. As MOTO X, is completely at a disadvantage, gray screen affect clarity, the distant landscape also has a larger loss of detail.

Low-light portraits (without using flash )

Shooting in low light (without flash), it's still the Nokia Lumia 1020 winner, photos, details better noise control is relatively good, but there are yellowish screen problem, you need to manually correct the white balance late. Another flagship low-light shooting MOTO X, the phenomenon appears overexposed, making the screen looks a little noisy, but is still relatively better than the Apple iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4. Generally speaking, the performance of four mobile phones are not perfect, still can not go beyond having a large size CMOS sensor digital SLR cameras .

Low-light portraits (flash)

Turn on the flash, you can see the Nokia Lumia 1020 Xenon flash performance is superior to the other three LED flash, but the balance is still a problem, people's skin looks very strange. Apple iPhone 5's performance has improved relative without a flash, but the character's blue shirt almost purple, color cast is more serious. As MOTO X, exposure to even things looked, and Samsung Galaxy S4 is showing a sense of painting, and the background there is a clear distortion of the framework conditions.

Outdoor Macro

Macro shooting outdoors, Nokia Lumia 1020 wins again with excellent detail, but the colors warmer problem persists. Relatively speaking, the Apple iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4 restore the color to be more precise. As MOTO X, although relatively sharp flower detail, but the picture color is still not accurate enough.

Still Life (color fidelity and white balance)

Finally, we test the four mobile phones still capture the color accuracy and white balance. You can see, the biggest problem is still the MOTO X, as Apple's iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4 color fidelity; while Nokia Lumia 1020 photo color saturation, sharpness and noise control, but significantly better than the other models.

Competition Results

It appears that Motorola is still not worth how to make a top camera phone, even MOTO X camera has some technical highlights, but the lack of good image processing engine, making its 10 million pixel camera shooting effect is not as Apple iPhone 5 of 8 million pixels more to the force. Of course, the blue screen problems are likely in the next software update improved.

As for the Nokia Lumia 1020, really is the best smartphone camera, with excellent detail and noise control, but it is not perfect, such as over-saturated color processing. In addition, the user also needs to take into account the limitations of Windows Phone system. In conclusion, if simply to photographic effect, the choice of the Nokia Lumia 1020 is absolutely right, but considering the ecological system, a combination of factors, may be Apple iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S4 is still the best choice.

Regarding the second phone is no "wow" can be expected, but the iPhone 5S will have to get something new, such as a fingerprint sensor. However, some designers dream about something else. In their view, the iPhone has a screen around the perimeter of the well, or at least not only in front but also on the sides of the unit.

To "these side screens" designers offer display notifications of missed calls and other information. However, we believe that this proposal is controversial and will be applicable and useful. What do you think?

Pro Cam let Lumia 920 to get two-channel stereo recording quality

Lumia 920 since the launch of the official claim that it is to have Rich Recording technology, but compared to the Nokia 808 PureView two-channel stereo recording, Lumia 920's Rich Recording technology can only achieve a single-channel recording, of course, the reason why there is such difference obtained because Windows Phone 8 system limitations caused obtained.
