New iPhone 4s Mini Photo Shoot

bdn3d · 10-18-2011, 08:23 PM

This is for all of the non-professional camera carrying, completly stock z4m owners, who find simple joy in taking photos of their ride.

**Conclusion**The camera is not bad on the new phone, as long as you do not enlarge the images to actual size. These are all less than 587kb.

Of course I will let you guys be the judge....

Enjoy!

Don't seem like it does too well at night.

And I have a Stock Z4M and I own a DSLR

camera looks to be the same as the iphone 4 to me....car looks great though, i love the color

i would have to agree that the 4s quality appears to be the same as the 4. i like the pictures, you have some nice dramatic clouds and an awesome subject but there is a bit too much noise and they are lacking sharpness. im sure the pics would be a lot nicer if it was brighter out.

Were you focusing the camera by clicking on the screen? Some of the photos look out of focus.

Nikki · 10-18-2011, 11:13 PM

Not bad. The clouds look sweet, awesome it managed not to "wash out" the sky. Could be the low lighting conditions but yeah, doesn't seem very sharp in some of the photos.

I just got the iPhone 4S and here are a couple I took, but in bright daylight.

Compare those to some I took with the 3GS last week:

Definitely an improvement.

l4zy · 10-18-2011, 11:18 PM

^lol yeah 3gs does not even come close to the 4/4s. one of the big reasons i upgraded last year.

Mine should be here any day. Has anyone used Tethering to their laptops yet ? I'm curious as to the dual core processor speeds and if it is as great as claimed.

bdn3d · 10-20-2011, 07:59 PM

downloaded a new app(instagram) that allows you to edit the photos right on the phone. It also allows you to post them on sites like face book and twitter...

Nikki · 10-20-2011, 10:36 PM

Nice, love that last shot. Instagram is an awesome app, especially since its free.

Yup I agree.

I would say Iphone pics... Nobody really cares if its a 2g, 3g, 3gs,4, or 4s. Same shit in reality. I own all of them.

OK, well my car was dirty in those photos and lighting was still subpar. Here is a much better show of what the 4S can do. No editing except for the "autocorrect" filter that Apple has built in now, which is pretty cool. It also has rotate, crop and redeye built in as well.

Yeah Nikki, that looks MUCH better. I was comparing recently, my GF's Android camera quality to my 4S and our color saturation and lens optics are defiantly better. I'll try to remember to snap a few and post up.

Nice pics but they are grainy as hell. If apple spent less time filing lawsuits they might have actually released the iphone 5.
