My Xperia P died,so for time being I have a HTC Radar. A great device with a 2.2 lens with BSI sensor. Now,with poorer camera phones I know how to get the best out of what it can do. It is ok in sunlight but night time can be noisy. The street shot was done on auto which I think looks ok. Some phones seem to do well in auto & the Radar has a very fast shutter no lag. The other shot with is Cadbury shop at night was done on ISO 800. For some reason the Radar has no night mode just ISO etc. But as average as the camera is it don't do too bad. Great performance & battery life though

So how did the P die ??
Not bad shots but not impressive. They're still much better than mine shot with a bloody N8 aswel !

Just woke up one morning and it had zero life from a fully charged battery. Just flashed a light at the top. Waiting for refund. Anyway,yes the HTC like most phones is better in sunlight. If you zoom in they tend to look like an oil painting

Im just waiting now for my 4.1.2 update on my SGS3 which apparently brings a low light function in the camera which removes all noise and boosts image quality. According the GSM arena, its fantastic.
We'll see when i get mine.

@ ILoveBhe - very beautiful pictures. Thats what im talking about. I really want a 808.
Did you need a tripod to get those shots ?? the massive detail and complete lack of noise in those pictures is amazing!

Thank you Etaab, i only used the tripod on the lady. While the rest, i improvised, found some solid platform to support my hands.

Well ive not had any time recently due to work to get more test shots but i'll try in the coming days.
Everywhere i go i see the numbers 808 in that order. Prices is shops, when people stop me to ask the time, all sorts, I think someones trying to tell me something.

@etaab Still not too sure about JB's new Low Light shooting mode. Had a christening party to attend and had a chance to fiddle with it. It's still more of a hit and miss even when using the Low Light mode, plus rendering time is slower (as expected) so when the subject moves even just a wee bit, the image is blurry.
(Crappy) Comparison photos using full auto mode and flash, and low light shooting mode:
Full auto:

Low Light mode:

I also tried a couple of the separate Night Mode, but pictures turned out too orange for some reason.
When my tripod gets on its lazy ass and decides to arrive here (before the year ends, hopefully), I'll try and do more comparison shots.
