Re: Share your HTC One (M8) photos, videos, and camera thoughts!
Thanks for the reply. I've pretty much decided on the M8 over the G3. I find it fits in my hand a little better, and I think I prefer Sense over whatever LG's skin is called. I'm gonna take one more look in-store first, but I don't think I can go wrong. After seeing the quality photos in this thread reading a few tips from members like you on how to take better photos, I'm less worried.
Yeah definitely check them out and decide. People like to pick at the phone just because it has the 4mp camera, but I think you'd be hard pressed to find anyone who is really disappointed with the camera. As you can see in the links, you can take amazing shots and I'd seriously doubt people would be disappointed with those results. It's definitely the most reliable camera I've used on an Android device. I know regardless of the condition, sunshine, low light, indoors, artificial light, it's going to take at least a decent shot. Especially in low light/indoor shots, you don't get the grain you'll get in other cameras. I had the Xperia Z1 with a beefy 20mp camera and while I really did like the camera outdoors, it was pretty much useless indoors or at night having dinner with friends.
I find the camera extremely versatile, rather than just doing outdoor/bright shots well and then everything else mediocre, it does everything well. If you compare bright daylight shots on wide-landscape style photos, yes, the M8 will fall short to the other phones, but for pretty much everything else, I'd take the M8 over the others.
But still, I suggest you try them and see which you like. The reasons why I like the M8 and its camera may not be reasons for you to like it. You should see it for yourself judge.
