Photo shootout: Lumia 900, iPhone 4S and HTC One X
Ok, I have to admit the quality of the camera scared me at first, especially with the low light shots people have been posting. Spent most of the evening scouring the net comparing sample shots between the Lumia 800 and what's out there. Into Mobile seems to have done all the work for me with the 900 so my comparison to others is a bit more accuarte. Going from the WPCentral review I thought the camera was pretty good, then I saw PCMags, and I almost cried. Then I saw IntoMobile's shootout, and I knew the Lumia 900 could hold it's own. I hope this helps others who are looking for a a solid camera phone.
EDIT: That said, the Lumia's achilles heel regarding the camera like most seems to be low light. The iPhone just does wonders with that, I'm guessing it might be that BSI with HDR maybe.
