okay, after looking at various samples and opinions of other sites about the Z1 camera using PROTOTYPE firmware, I can say:
1. Z1 camera produces excellent results in daylight, most notably the very high dynamic range and minimal chroma noise.
2. The amount of resolved detail in daylight is excellent, considering this is a 20mp image, downsizing it to 13mp will make the photo look even sharper.
3. Sony needs to finetune the software more for lowlight, BUT I see most sites seem to not use Sony's handheld twilight mode, which is supposed to be for lowlight picture taking, need more samples for those, still I think they need to improve more in lowlight processing.
4. Most foul reviews do pixel peeping, they seem to forget the image size is 20mp
.
Anyway any camera experts here (razec perhaps) feel free to correct me.

either it's a horrible nitpicking attempt or they're still in denial that Sony moved on from poor viewing angles.

Yes they use Auto Mode. HHT or Manual mode will offer much better results.

^technically superior auto mode (which is default) should automatically select HHT mode when taking low-light photos. but it would be good if they manually chose the mode to make sure.

No, Superior Auto has nothing to do with HHT. It works only when you go to manual mode and choose HHT and then it takes 6 successive shots and merges them into one low ISO equivalent image.

ah ok. i thought HHT was a "scene mode".. my mistake
these "camera" reviews aren't very scientific or anything at all. shame DP review doesn't review camera phones.
also, anybody else excited for the freebies on music/movie unlimited?? i sure am!

Strange thing I notice that quick settings on the notification bar could be only 1 row of 5, and not 2 rows as of Xperia Z...
