QUOTE(ZeneticX @ Oct 16 2013, 07:47 PM) how reputable is this website in doing camera reviews? it's one the very few which places the 1020 below the z1. but 5S is higher than 1020 ?  That site is professional and trust-able.

QUOTE(jloi @ Oct 17 2013, 09:23 AM) shootout time   Why your shoot so bad, haha! That is the problem with the person taken the photo, nothing to do with the phone panel itself.  This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Oct 17 2013, 10:17 AM

QUOTE(jloi @ Oct 17 2013, 10:34 AM) I dunno ma coz I never really play Note 3 camera except at the launch that day which, I think the unit i play faulty 1 haha I think is your camera faulty. Actually I know why your photo behave like that, I try snap before, they is easier over expose for AMOLED screen if put side by side with another LCD panel phone. The camera just get mad.

QUOTE(psyeo @ Oct 17 2013, 10:45 AM) err...you got the wrong msg again. he was saying that the Note 3 launch unit that he played with might be faulty. ntg about AMOLED panel.  I am talking fun with him. It is nothing serious here. Don't you see I said fun on his camera faulty, I mean his another camera use for snap both, not related to Note 3 or Z1.

QUOTE(jloi @ Oct 17 2013, 12:54 PM) First test Indoor p/s Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is 13MP instead of 20MP. Did a typo :/ » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Download full res here : https://www.dropbox.com/s/oul0ng09zhrsl7k/Z...03%20Indoor.rarWill continue with Daylight outdoor and lowlight later when I am free  When I check your photo, I feel how come the head all blur, then I just download the actual photos and check... How come all your Note 3 is focusing the wall rather than the robot head. The focusing is not so correct. Not biased, I saying true. Example: (base on ISO-100 sample)Note 3 - Focusing at wall. (check the connection line in between, it is sharp clear than the robot head itself)  Z1 - Focusing at Robot Head. (correctly focus, as your robot is clear where the wall is blur out) This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Oct 17 2013, 03:01 PM

I'll do another indoor test later without distracting line on bg lol p/s I use touch focus to capture on both camera. cough- maybe samsung touch focus doesnt accurate I never had touch focus issue for Note 3 or during tryout Z1 that time. Both work perfect for me. Sample: Note 3 Focus at Calendar v/s Focus at Chair This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Oct 17 2013, 03:37 PM

QUOTE(ZeneticX @ Oct 17 2013, 04:37 PM) i've seen some people saying it's always better to shoot in 4:3 instead of 16:9 because 16:9 stretches the picture and result in certain details are lost the only reason to take a 16:9 shot is you want the picture to be used as a wallpaper on a monitor true ? 16:9 is not that easier to control the ratio especially snap closed object, if not angle proper, the things will looks a bit like stretch, easier to spot, try snap round plate. But 16:9 nice in landscaping.  and dunno why, after some use, I more like 16:9, maybe I always like this ratio, I also much prefer movies in 16:9.

QUOTE(CWKen87 @ Oct 17 2013, 05:14 PM) The 16:9 aspect ratio is just like auto-crop from the default sensor aspect ratio which is 4:3. The only reason people shoot 16:9 is for photography perspective reason (i.e. cinematic feel etc). By right, it doesn't give any difference compared to you cropping a 4:3 picture into 16:9 aspect ratio. Any perceived loss in details of distortion is merely perspective. In the end, it's just up to how you want your photos to looks like nia. Nothing else. If it's me, I prefer to compose my photos at 4:3. Only when I wanna shoot certain landscape where there're too much unwanted, unimportant or unattractive features then I use 16:9 Your answer is exactly the most correct one.

QUOTE(jloi @ Oct 17 2013, 05:54 PM) Done with the test. Friend rushing want back the phone LOL Overall as andrewtst said, lowlight Z1 is better. Daylight Note 3 is better with more saturate color and sharper image until ISO 800 Z1 seem better abit maintaining the details. Both got pros and cons. Nothing is perfect in this world. If you can get the Lumia 1020 as well. Do some comparison on it. This post has been edited by Andrewtst: Oct 17 2013, 07:55 PM

QUOTE(ZeneticX @ Oct 20 2013, 02:13 AM) a tip for those who want to test whether their NFC is working without going through the service test menu best is to use a tounchngo card and touch the nfc logo at the back of ur phone, if got sound and vibration means ur NFC is working You could try with Passport also, the phone will beep when you touch the phone with passport with NFC ON. I accidentally notice this, hehe.

QUOTE(ZeneticX @ Oct 20 2013, 02:52 AM) ah didn't know that is NFC as well but only for those who renew their passport recently and by tomorrow u will sleep as normal  Ya, only for new passport. With NFC Tag Info - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...apps.nfctaginfoYou can get more details include your passport photo!  After install, need to setup access key by keying your passport number, birth date and expiry date, before it can check in proper, photo wise, need to additional install PassportImageDecoder - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...ps.imagedecoderThis post has been edited by Andrewtst: Oct 20 2013, 03:13 AM
