[Camera Comparison] Apple iPhone 5 vs. Samsung Galaxy S III vs. HTC One X vs. Nokia Lumia 900

One of the much needed features on a smartphone is a good camera, and the flagship handsets do well to provide that. Now that the new Apple iPhone 5 has joined the smartphone ranks, we cant help but wonder how well the device fairs against the current flagships in the camera department.



The iPhone 5 features an 8 megapixel iSight camera and improved backside illuminated sensor and F2.4 aperture lens.

The Samsung Galaxy S III is probably its largest competitor with its 8 megapixel camera and F2.6 lens. The Nokia Lumia 900 is another solid competitor with an 8 megapixel camera and a F2.2 Carl Zeiss Lens. Last but not least we have the HTC One X which also has an 8 megapixel camera with an F2.0 lens

The tests also covers Detail, Color Production, Exposure and Dynamic Range, Indoor Photography, Night Shots, Macro Mode, Ease of use and Speed. You can read and review the detailed comparison between the devices by following the source link at the bottom of the page.

Check out the following video capture samples from the four devices. The Lumia 900 is only capable of 720p video capture, while the other three capture video at 1080p full HD.
