Improved Camera On the iPhone 3G (pictures)

[yode]

I assume people who refer to the next gen iPhone as "4G" dont even know what 3G means.

why is this? what if the next iphone comes out when 4G networks are available?

can't expect more from a newbie😉 btw the second quote is private message i got from meko😀

Do you know what private messages are for? They're private for a reason, otherwise he'd have just replied... Like me.

Pffff. Nubbie!!!!!

LOL. It's a hatchling of a newbie.

Which refers to the cell network not the generation of the iPhone. EDGE was 2G.

<ducks> edge is 2.5G 😉 </ducks>

<ducks pos="really low"> also HSDPA is 3.5G so it should be called iPhone 3.5G</ducks>

Nokia signed up Sony Ericsson, NEC and Alacatel-Lucent to its plans for 4G only three months ago and you expect to see 4G technology implemented in iPhone 3rd generation in a year?? and lets say Apple does so do you think operators will go next generation in a year? I don't think so and if you do, just call it iPhone 4G to prove you're a noob.

yeah please don't refer to the next version of iPhone as 4G. Apple just finished rolling out the 3G network and they aren't near done with that. Who knows how Apple will market the next iPhone version but it won't be 4G.

Apple hasn't rolled out any net work and since they aren't a cell provider it doesn't seem likely they will so please don't patronize other posters...

It's true Apple did something to the camera (i doubt the 1mm bigger lens is the cause of this) but who knows.

The basic laws of physics (diffraction effects) says that a bigger (diameter) lens of equal optical quality will have higher resolution. Small pinholes lenses will have crappy quality no matter how many 10's of megapixels of sensor get put behind it.

The composition and lighting are clearly different, so we can't conclude anything from this test. A small bump in the ambient brightness would do a lot to reduce the grain caused by the auto-exposure gain.

I am glad I am not the only other person that thought about this. The EXIF data is stripped, so its impossible to tell other than with the eye what the exposure was. Rearranging different colored objects in a room WILL cause light to be cast differently. Which can change just about anything on the camera. Maybe pushing the 2.0 iphone's camera into its "sweet spot".

First off, we don't really know what the successor to the iPhone 3G will be called. Although, I myself have been confused what they will call it.

And second, Apple CAN provide us with video functionality with a simple firmware update but, for whatever reason, they don't want to.🙁

I'm going to go out on a craaaazy limb here and suggest that they'll what they do with all their products.

When the new iPhone comes out, because the old iphone won't be available (so people won't be able to mix it up), it'll be called the.....iPhone!!!

The marketing will refer to it as 'The new iPhone', and that'll be that. it's not rocket science.
