    Bad thing with iPhone camera is the software, not the hardware or “megapixel”. Just like iSight on MB/pro. The OS always trying to balance (auto adjust) brightness/contrast. iPhone users can’t take control of it. (thank God there’s iGlasses app for iSight).

    Try take a picture of black on white drawing from your computer screen. You can’t! Now adjust the computer brightness, and notice the iPhone is trying to adjust it too!

    IMO, the camera auto adjust in iPhone is ultra crap.

    very nice comparison (esp with the sound swap) !!
    thanks for posting !!

    even for PICTURE quality – it is not all about the MP count !! — even more so for VIDEO quality. The lens size and quality, the autofocus accuracy, the white balance, the compression (esp for video) — ALL play a very important role as well as the MP count.

    iPhone 3Gs has a better focus on close objects but it’s video quality is not good enough S:

  5. bl1ndr Said,

    iphone 3gs isn’t good in low light settings

  6. GuitarPunk95 Said,

    audio is way better on iPhone 3GS, overall i prefer iPhone 3GS’s camera

  7. CricketboyStudios Said,

    You can clearly hear that the Samsung NV8 picks up audio better

  8. ZA312008 Said,

    its the samsung innov8?

  9. downphoenix Said,

    the 3GS camera stacks up pretty well as far as cellphone cameras are concerned, and good upclose focus, but the samsung is better no contest with the exception of the upclose plant shot.

    very impressive!!! the iphone colours at 0:35 are better than samsung camera!!!

  11. JakeCanRead Said,

    well the samsung is clearly better video quality but it picks up too much sound

    Hey I have a video test of my iphone 3gS on my channel aswell and it would be great if you would check it out. I also have a more extensive video review of it in different settings in the works so stay tuned. im just waiting to get editing software for windows that can edit both .MOV and .AVI.. What did you use to edit this and was it on a mac or pc? Thanks

  13. richardlai Said,

    QuickTime Pro would be your answer, otherwise go for Adobe Premiere Pro.

  14. bigben77123 Said,

    ok thanks ya i was looking into adobe.

  15. francescoeye Said,

    it’s amazing

  16. gtaIVdaltonclark Said,

    both look good i love the iphone

  17. denova1 Said,

    all already know that iphone’s camera not really good. recording or still image are suck.

    buttttt!!!! if u talk about PERFORMANCE…fast interface..REAL MULTI TOUCH phone.. yeah.. ofcoz Apple iPhone. coz i phone has been build for people who looking for fast performance. not camera.

  18. luckyluke1000 Said,

    Of course, the iphone 3g s camera isn’t the importest thing of this phone. But i hope, the iphone 4G (or what else it will be named) has a better cam, HD video recording or something.

    The iphone 3G S was “just” an update for the 3G. The 4G will be the next generation of mobile phones.

  19. APrintezis Said,

    the still-camera in the iPhone 3GS is not that bad .. the auto focus feature added works very well, and you can focus and adjust the light anywhere you touch on the screen .. for a cellphone, that’s not too bad : )

  20. peppoj Said,

    The iPhone 3gs might not have the best video camera in the world, but it’s by far the best mobile phone camera i have ever owned!!

  21. for3verskate Said,

    samsung wins sadly ):

  22. altach4ever Said,

    then ur a very poor person =(

  23. Bhock182 Said,

    The iPhone is built to be a phone. For a phone, that ain’t bad at all. Good comparison!

  24. iliatilev Said,

    Iphone vs Camera…!! Compare Camera vs Camera…??

  25. TurkiDelight Said,
