C905 vs Innov8 (Camera Comparison)

[dreamcatcher]

Mobile review forum only had two of them. Check them out yourself. The innov8 pics are darker with a tad better sharpness and the c905 pics have better white balance.The reds are red.

the innov8 pics are highly purple fringed too..look at the sky...And damn, they should have been shot from the same angle. C905 FTW!!!

Xenon

A close one.

Here goes

Both pics are really closely matched.. I couldn't find any difference at all..

[dreamcatcher]

Btw..the review is between a pre production C905 and a on-sale innov8.

[jingalala]

But C905 is steeply priced.The prices of both C905 & Innov8 would be about 35k.Thats out of ordinary man's budget.I was planning to purchase one but changed my mind because of its price.
Well fortunately I will have a W902 in the first week of next month which would cost around 24k.

[dreamcatcher]

C905 is 35k??

Are you out of your mind.C905 is max 25k and i am being pessimistic.

[jingalala]

As you are a SE fan you would definitely know better,i read about it yesterday but i don't remember the website now.

@dreamcatcher what about its video recording capability?

QVGA OR VGA or it is still unclear!!!!!

Do u feel they're gonna upgrade the cam at this point, wen its about to be released..

[dreamcatcher]

I guess it will be QVGA.Only downside of an undoubtedly awesome phone.

It will obviously host a better firmware...

[Sumeet_naik]

Maybe and hope so..

The sky in the INNOV8 is perfectly alright. That's how an evening sky looks like. The C905's higher brightness has slightly washed out the sky.

As for the visualization, notice that not all the digits are yellow. Some of them are red. If there was some problem with colour rendition, then all the digits would have been yellow. The digits could've been flashing or changing when the picture was taken which is why some digits appear off-colour.

As for the board, neither of the phones have perfectly white boards. INNOV8's board is slightly brownish while that of the C905 is grayish.

As for the C905 it is quite clear that the reds still are dark pink, which can be clearly seen from the left board and the digits on the right board. The picture is also noticeably colder while INNOV8 perfectly captures the warmth of the evening sun. C905's edges are also a bit blurred as can be seen on the lights of the boards.

To be perfectly honest however neither of us have seen the real situation and there is no way for us to tell which phone has captured the scene more accurately. So it's best if we don't comment on the colours. For all we know the actual scene might be entirely different from what is captured by both the phones.

Innov8 pic looks more natural

[dreamcatcher]

Blah blah krazzy. See what you have to say to this.

100% crop innov8



100% crop C905




Damn..the sky is so purple down here.You are right, its more natural.

convincing you is out of question here. But thats what I felt and said, there was some white balance applied to the pic in later case. One can easily find out, it doesn't take a lens to prove it.

[dreamcatcher]

@t159- I was not referring to you.And are you trying to say that i edited the C905 pic to make it look better??

Acc to krazzy the Evening sky looks like this, so the reply.

[Third Eye]

Moar pics please.

[Faun]

I agree, you didn't edit it. May be there is some pre/proprocessing done before taking the picture. Some cool new feature of C905.

just image search for "evening blue sky"

[Power UP]

Yup more pics, just one set is not enough. C905 pic looks a bit washed out.

[dreamcatcher]

A few comparisons are being set up as we speak. I am not the one who does the comparisons(would love to though, would mean that i own the handsets ).Will post as i get them.

As for now, here are a few C905 pics to interest you guys.Cheers man!!!

Please do comment as to how they are.



Enjoy...

[krates]

C905 pics are better and for the fact it got xenon flash obviously it is better than innov8 in terms of camera

[dreamcatcher]

samsung 8mp touchscreen camera phone review

http://www.mobile-review.com/review/...m8800-en.shtml

interesting to read its take on led vs xenon flash ..

his finding are exactly opposite to what i experienced with xenon and led flash .. that the range of xenon is more than led .. stated otherwise in above review .. also, he must have included n82 xenon flash for comparison which irrespective of range is just fantastic ..

hope its not offtopic ..

[dreamcatcher]

In many ways and situations a LED flash is a superior choice to a Xenon unit, especially when shooting from several meters away. On the other hand, Xenon flash modules fare much better when it comes to close-ups. But as they say one picture is worth a thousand words – you better see what we are talking about for yourself (all shots below feature the M8800 and Sony Ericsson C905).

Any person with brains can easily make out that the reviewer mistakenly replaced the xenon with led.Its a mistake on the part of the reviewer. n00b

[yogi7272]

looks like c905 is another k850i in the making ... with strong competition, its going to struggle .. and spending 15k + on a dumb phone ..only a dumb person will do that ..we know who

[dreamcatcher]

^^yeah right. You keep dreaming on .C905 has the best cam in the market+wifi and gps. So please keep shut and try to appreciate the pics. Just coz nokia does not have the tech to bring out an 8 mp...

Haha.....C905 another K850i?? lolumad?

C905 > innov8 in terms of camera even before its release.

And still I can't see any strong competition to C905's camera in its segment i.e. 20K to 24K.....

Well, people who need a very good camera in a mobile will surely go for C905. Nokia hasn't still even announced a 8mp phone and you say the competition is strong?? Announcement toh doooor ki baat hai, abhi toh Nokia k 8mp phone k rumours bhi nahi.......

Haha, all I can say is that every person has a different set of features which he wants in a phone. If he gets what he wants in a phone, he'll surely buy it.

Just because Nokia doesn't have a 8mp phone doesn't mean it lacks 'the tech' to make it. I really wonder what kind of 'tech' one needs to make a higher resolution camera. Nokia has come from CIF to VGA, then 1, 2, 3 and now 5mp camera. Now I wonder whether it requires some special knowledge to go beyond 5mp, some special skill which only SE, Samsung and LG has mastered. Nokia was the first to come out with a 5mp camera phone. They could've done it this time as well. Or they could've done it after Samsung and SE announced their 8mp phones. But obviously they don't want to be part of this megapixel race. Or how difficult would have been for a company like Nokia to come up with a 8mp camera phone by now if they really wanted to?

If we go by your logic, they even I can say that SE lacks 'the tech' to come up with a CDMA phone or some good low-end phones like Nokia's 1100. Or something to rival Nokia's 8XXX series or the Vertu phones. Or should we just conclude that SE lacks 'the tech' to sell it's phones, considering it is at the same position all these years, overtaken by Samsung and LG? Or should we conclude that SE lacks 'the tech' to make good profit from it's phones? No wait. I think they have 'the tech' to make a loss in sales, which was something Motorola had mastered.

[dreamcatcher]

Dude, please.The post was about Nokia.Dont bring Lg and Samsung into the matter. Lg endoses prada whiule Samsung endorses Armani, Nokia's sirocco is just a guniea pig is this whole vast world.

All these years?? LG and samsung are older than SE and SE has done great in itself to reach such a position in just 7 years. Btw, its only a quarter in which SE has lost share, now if in a quarter SE gains back its original share..the heads would be like..OMG..SE's sales have increased by 5%..damn.. LOL..

take it in dude, Nokia still lives on its low ends.SE has the highest per phone income in the world i.e. 140 pounds.That is far ahead of the competion. Moreover, Nokia comes nowhere cloe to SE or samsung in terms of innovation. SE and Samsung are the innovators and Nokia..well...newaz..cant really say much on someone who hasnt yet mastered how to make a touchscreen. Newaz...


This thread is a comparison on the superior imaging capabilities of the innov8 and the c905. Please start your foolish rants somewhere else. If you have pics to share, please do...else......
