Why not 8 mp camera?

This odd to me? Is this a selling point for me to dump this phone when the next comes out?

If you're honestly considering this, then a Nexus probably isn't for you.

Asking questions this foru, is almost becoming demoralizing.

"come to android central to be harassed for accidentally creating a duplicate topic and ridoculed for asking a reasonable qiestion."

I think even with askimg that question a nexus may be for me. Now I know. Im not a photo pro but yea when I take pictures zooming is huge for me. So this is important, but wait.... Yea so is the shutter lag fix.

So now I know.

F you (ultravisitor), f you(shizero), f you(pototolover), your cool(poopai), f you(andrewruffolo), I'm out.

If the phone came with a 2 megapixel camera, I'd see the argument. But 5 versus 8? I say that it's easier on storage and also bet that it's a nice 5 mp camera. I like nice.

Second that. Good camera, smaller sizes pictures. Win win

Something that many of you are not considering is down sampling. Yes, the 8mp sensor crams more photo sites into the same space, but the image it produces can be reduced to a 5mp image in order to lower noise. It may even have less noise than the native 5mp sensor produces at 5mp.

In the end, each sensor has access to the same amount of light. That being said, noise level is also dependent of sensor quality. I would love to love to see a manufacture outsource the sensor to Sony, for example. I would love (even more) to see a larger sensor used, though that would result in a larger optics package.

Honestly, I am glad they chose a 5MP camera. Not only will it take better pictures, but that means the phone is less likely to sell out when it's released...

Also it's a Nexus, so it's gonna get developer attention no matter how many or few people have it.

I understand that mentality in the economy that we're in. I would rather have a sell out phone and potentially wait for one (or really play my cards to get one on launch day) than have Google/Samsung/Verizon market a device in such a fashion that downplays its market penetration.

if android has one thing going for it, its that the more buyers there are of a particular phone, the more dev there is for it, and so on... having a temporary sell-out is more than worth it if its going to be a huge dev phone (and each nexus has been a huge community dev phone so far...)

posts like this help no one. I hope you learn that respecting others isn't dependent on anyone but yourself. there will always be difficult people on the interweb forums. sadly android central happens to be one of those places on more than one occasion, but if you are going to sink to this level of disrespect so easily, then you might want to reconsider your browsing locations in the all-around.

please take your drama and lack of constructive initiative elsewhere, as both do nothing to help around here...

I'm sure he was joking at a certain level. That is a quote from the movie Half Baked....
