in my limited experience, phone pictures suck.

anyway, that is what happens when i forget to zip my jacket pocket and then choose to take a curve at triple digit speeds on jezebel. lesson learned.

My iphone doesn't have the best camera, Glens isn't bad, and I've heard rumors the new iphone will have a better camera.

In normal lighting conditions the camera on the IPhone is not bad.

They are 2592 x 1936 pixels. It has a option that you can turn on or off called HDR or High Dynamic Mode where it basically shoots two photos with one slightly over exposed and one slightly underexposed. You can combine them back together and get better shadow and highlight detail.

This image is just a normal exposure "happy snap" from the iPhone, no HDR.



This is the center area cropped out.


The real downfall is low lighting areas.



For a camera that I always have with me it is not bad. It does real nice HD video.

My droid X is an 8MP camera and can shoot HD vid. Not bad but not as good as some digital cameras.
