Hi everyone, I recently got a Desire HD Canadian version such is closer to the inspire than the European version, I am wondering if anyone knows what kind of lens and sensor is this device is using.. I have read that there is 2 kinds of sensors one a Samsung one and another type such I don't remember the name of. Also I heard the lens is plastic? Can anyone confirm this? I have read the guide for the camera on the dhd forum but I won't to find out more detail about the hardware in the American version since it seems different. looking forward to any information. Thank you

If you want a camera , a nikon d40 is cheap these days . It takes a great picture.and you can change lenses on it , even add a bigger flash
dont consider the camera on Inspire 4G gives u the good quality on photos
I am not complaining on the camera I just want to know the hardware..

Well im still thinking pixels dont have nothing to do with quality, not in a big way i mean. But this video (ad) looked kinda nice.
I read about this earlier today, HTC really sticking to their innovative guns.

Windows Mobile 6.5 is good, but outdated.
The newer Windows, Windows Phone 7 maybe good in the future, looking at its good UI and potential, but as of now, there are less applications and less functionality.
Htc Desire
Its good but i think it FPS is less even then the digital camera.
But good phone it can replace the the low mega pixel digital camera

How many megapixels does it take to steal the souls of indigenous tribal people by photographing them? I may consider buying this phone hmmm...

Mexapixels =/= quality. I've got my DSLR for photos.

more mp doesn't mean better nicer looking photos

More low quality pixels than we had before. Yippee?
Nice phone is it worth going from a samsung phone or htc?
When will people realize that megapixels mean jack ****?
I have my D700 and Zeiss glass if I want to take nice photos.

Only if you are coming from the iPhone. If you are an Android or WM 6.1/6.5 user, you will be highly disappointed by how Microsoft tried to copy the iPhone simplicity without giving you the Android versatility/customization.
As for megapixels on a camera, absolutely worthelss unless you want to blow up the photo to a 6-ft x 9-ft image.....
So I take it it's another increase in megapixels in lieu of a better sensor?
Definitely worth check out, thank you for the post

certainly it belongs in the top 3 which makes me think why other sites namely phonearena ignores the video recording aspect when they rank phones in terms of camera, anything to make the iphone rank higher
Great outdoor camera, i find it pretty crappy in low light without flash. Pics look almost cartoon when zoomed in.
OT:
I didn't want to open a new thread for such a small issue. Did you guys check the new Note commercial, looks great to me.
Why no off-topic thread for GN3? Should be there somewhere, I just can't find it now.
Having the 1020 ( and my wife still uses the Nokia 808) and the Note 3 the results seem pretty legit.
I don't know why they included the 1020 on the test, Nokia is 2 generations ahead in this field. There is no way to compare the 41mpx PureView sensor to the other sensors in the pack ( 6 lens optics by CZ perfectly augments the sensor resolution). Most of them are Sony BSI and the difference in IQ is 90% made by software and 10% processing power. For now, nothing is worth comparing to 1020/808.
Note 3 takes good pix on daylight, but on the other hand, it's almost useless at night. For the functionality of the Note 3 and its sector, the camera is the best out there no question asked.
Iphonearena thinks otherwise. They have placed iphone 5s on top.

Not quite sure I understand your comments. The iphone ranks second last, just ahead of the HTC One. I have the HTC One and the camera is mediocre at best. Even night shots aren't as good as advertised.

The camera on the note 3 is a lot better than any iphone. More features and more options are more important.

+1, night time shots suck unfortunately. but thats pretty much the case with all phone cameras.
One thing iPhone is good at is speed of taking pictures.
I used to have a one and pics where quite mixed.
Not really tested the note 3 yet.

How is the Note3 for action shots? The S4 had very noticeable shutter lag and it made action shots near impossible.

They say so comparing it to the M8 and it's exceptional low light performance. Obviously, E8 won't be as good as that, but I read in some Chinese review that it is a very capable 13mp unit, comparable to the S4 camera, which was considered really well back then. For a phone camera, I think that is sufficient.
Also, I'm linking another hands on, from Techradar this time!

No. As far as I know, it has the same speaker grill in all regions.
I saw a picture with the full speaker grill too, but I think that was a pre-release test unit!

Not yet, but I'm pretty sure this camera will be no match for the S5. That will be way better.

It doesn't have clarity, sharpness and detailing.
And full of noise and blurriness.

The shots are ok but....that yellow tinge to every single photo really makes the photos seem dull and lifeless. Don't know if that can be fixed with adjusting the manual settings like white balance or not. Users of the phone know anything about that?

For an average user, I'm sure the camera will be sufficient. Easily. But if you're looking for an out-of-the-world performance, this phone it's for you. It's camera is not one of the best 13mp shooter out there.
I currently use a One S, which had a pretty decent camera itself, served me really well till now, I've clicked some amazing shots with it, and I'm sure this One E8 is better than One S.

I guess tinkering with the manual setting will improve the results a bit, but I have read at many places that it tends to click pics a bit darker. The photos don't look dull in particular, just a bit less light in them!

Yep I agree! Some of those samples look really sharp & detailed to me but I'm not really that picky about smart phone cameras. I think the cam on my nexus 6 is pretty good so I'm looking forward to the pure edition quite a bit.
Since I use the phone for basically all my "photography" (if we want to call it that ). I like a good quality camera. But given I'm uploading to Google Photos. I hope they don't diminish the quality of photos too much. I'm using the "unlimited" option, so Google scales things down a bit if they desire.
But if I want to save off a good quality pick to the SDcard, that's a nice option to have.

I'm considering this phone as the next one to get. As far as it goes, the camera (good or bad) is not a deal breaker for me. I don't use the camera enough to care. To each his/her own.
Disregard. I posted in the wrong forum. Wasn't paying enough attention to where I was!
The daylight and average light shots look fantastic, but the night shots aren't impressive. I feel like if we were able to get OIS we could get by with slower shutter speeds and therefor less noise.

I wish they had OIS and laser focus.
I think a 13 or 16 MP is plenty, they could focus spending the extra money on other stuff.
I hope this camera is better than the OP2 and Nexus 6 I
As long as the camera is better than the m8s (which I am almost certain it is) then that's a good enough upgrade. The m8s camera is so horrid tha its the main reason for my switch.
Well its Using Sony's new Exmor RS IMX230 which from the sample photos look damn good!!
Sent from my A0001 using Tapatalk
camera looks really nice to me.. good enough w/o OIS.. That night mode seems pointless though
Wow, looks great! Still gonna play it safe and wait for a few reviews tho.
I don't care so much about the lack of OIS... (would have been a nice option) but I'm interested in the quality of slowmo videos (720p/120fps). I owned a Sony Xperia Z3 and there slowmo was awsome by the way "steadyshot" worked very very well !! Now I have a Note 4: pictures are looking great, video is looking great but slowmo is a shame! I think LG G4 suffers from the same problem...
I hope Moto x style will perform better in slomo...
If the moto x style cam is able to produce similar pics of quality like my note 4...that would be cool thing...
