ooh... so i got it the other way round... the smaller the number, means bigger aperture... and more lights can pass thru the lens...

thanks!

for aperture, the smaller the number denotes bigger the aperture size is. so f2.0 is bigger aperture.
the larger the aperture size is, the smaller the focus field is, giving a bokeh effect i.e. capturing portrait photo with blurred background.

if ip5 sensor was 1/3.2" and increased by 15%, a rough calculation will give 1/2.8"

base just on numbers, the z1 still has bigger aperture and sensor size compared to ip5s. lets see how the iphone perform in real applications.

huh? bigger aperture means smaller focus field... like u said portrait photo will have blurred background... is this a + point or - point?

Its plus point because its the most used feature in Instagram. Blur background

But the be frank, our Z1 sensor and lens is too small to be obvious to have blur background.

wider range of aperture size of course its a good thing. bokeh effect is beautiful.

tat's dSLR. Not going to happen with Z1. Stop dreaming.

ooo... thanks for the explanation.

Well, its just to demonstrate the effect of aperture.
Not even nokia 41mp sensor can achieve good bokeh.

Small sensor wun get bokeh unless u use Macro mode.
Sensor need at least 1/1.7 inch for barely looking bokeh

agreed. picture quality is good, phone price no good.


AA wrote the review while drunk is it?

i believe i can fly~~
oops overdreamt.
but still, the question can be, z1 vs s4 zoom?

price differ so much leh.

Of course Z1 la.

If u bring out s4 zoom, I think I will laugh at u.

Personally tested with S4 zoom and dislike the jpeg quality + colors. And the aperture is slow f3.2
the only advantage over Z1 is the ability for optical zoom

yeah... looks like ip5c gonna replace ip5, but with "cheaper" plastic material. and yet gonna sell it at a price just like ip5 initial launch price...

and the ip5s gonna be the real "premium" model, gonna sell it at even higher price than all other previous ip model...

specwise, better camera dual led, and security.
z1 higher spec, now z1 vs ip5s camera.

and we have yet to see any comparison pic from note3.
btw, any improvement made to the note3 camera compared to S4?

more camera sample from Z1

looks good! Dinosaur!

Need more night photo sample to really see how really Z1's camera performs...

hehe.. but i actually also think, who would buy it?
the back is too heavy due to the camera-like design.

i see..


saw the price too, and was quite surprised they dare to put hefty price for a plastic phone(karma is it?)
how can it be said as a "low budget" when it's that high?

5s i can understand with additional features inside but as we know, iphone do have high price tag..
even now i just saw apple malaysia site, they have removed all traces of iphone 5. only left with ip4s with 1499 price tag..

i do agree to you..
night shots are somehow less in all pictures taken..

After so many check on Z1 photos. Z1 photos not bad.

Just some fine tune, will be awesome!
