I promised that we'd post a duel between Sony Ericsson's C902 and C905 as well as a Nikon digital SLR camera, which ended up being the ageing 10-megapixel Nikon D80. In the photos there is a significant difference in terms of the size of the elements from the C905 and D80's photos and the photos produced by the C902. This is caused due to the lower camera resolution on the C902. There's hardly any visible difference between the C905 and D80 as the C905 shoots in 3:4 format and the D80 shoots in 2:3 format.

The following pictures are 100 percent crops that are straight out of the cameras. All cameras were set to auto, and left to decide everything themselves. We'll provide full size samples in the upcoming full comparison, but the crops should do for now.














We understand that it really isn't fair to include the C902 in this comparison, as a complementary source of light is needed, but we've decided to go for it anyway. Some of the pictures were shot up to several times because the quality just wasn't satisfying.

No doubt the quality is improving, but there's still a long way to go if the mobile phone manufacturers have any plans of reaching the really high quality levels. Can you match the cameras and pictures?

1st is C902

I think everyone will have guessed that number1.

And it would have been stupidly unfair, like Mizzle said:

and seeing as the C902 is superior to the C702, what would be the point?

Nice comparison Miz, really shows the power of the C905's flash. smile.gif

but number1 says the c702 takes the most beautiful pics of all camera phones because of its low resolution.

(Im not saying anything)

Yeah I knew he'd go on like that, so I tried to steer clear from that topic.

number1, please realise that these are low light pictures and your C702 only has an LED flash.

Albeit, less detailed than the C902's which is already out of the competition.

Nope, Under the heading Noise suppressant explains my point very well http://6mpixel.org/en/?page_id=21

Here less megapixels wins again http://6mpixel.org/en/?page_id=8

Hehe, yep, guess that one was a tiny bit too easy for ya' lot.

I currently don't have a C702 at my disposal, so I can't include that.

I guess you'd find the answer to that question here. And no, it's not a prototype.

I have a real one. Also comparing to a nikon D80 that is like one of the best digital cameras you can buy it would have been a better test comparing it to a 7mp digital camera and an 8mp.

I honestly wasn't expecting it to be so good... imagine what you can do with custom drivers!

Not sure I can make it today or Friday. Saturday is not good either as that's my birthday. I will probably post some on Sunday then.
