This seems like a solid review: Nexus 5 review | The Verge. Sadly, a reportedly disappointing camera and battery.

Although, in this comparison: http://recombu.com/mobile/news/google-nexus-5-camera-comparison_M19696.html. I actually think the Nexus 5 is tied for 2nd place (with the iPhone 5S, and behind the Lumia 1020).

Yet another: http://www.androidcentral.com/nexus-5-initial-photo-and-video-samples. The Note 3 looks better than the Nexus 5, imo.

And in the Nexus 5 vs. Galaxy S4 video posted above, they both break even, imo.

Some Tahitian Treat snapped with my N5. Coming from Galaxy Nexus so it's a huge upgrade for me

First impression: very meh.

Shutter is slow in hdr+ and picture will never be fast enough for indoors on a moving target. Low light really blows.

And I was using a moto X so this is marginally worse, IMO.

Agreed that the shutter is very slow and struggles to focus. If you are taking an image of a still subject then you have a chance, otherwise you get some blurry shots. HDR+ shots come out sharper for me as stated by many others. Hope they fix it soon.

Just un-boxed my N5. Took a couple shots w/HDR+ on.

Here is a pic that I snapped of my dog yesterday, before I took her out for her walk.

Yeah don't move for about two seconds. It will never work if you're trying to take a great shot in a quick moment.

I just realized you can use the volume buttons as the shutter

First photos with the N5- personally the "auto" color is a bit warm (yellow) for my taste but I'm playing with the settings. I may be a fan of the sunny day. Not sure yet and it will take some time.

First pic is of iphone 5s taken normally and than the nexus 5. Than the 3rd pic is iphone 5s in HDR mode and the last one is nexus 5 in HDR+

Looks good. The iPhone +HDR looks the best (sky isn't blown out), but all are decent quality in my opinion.

Today was a gray autumn day so the fall leaves don't look like much, but here's a HDR+ shot that's interesting because the lights aren't just black areas, but have some detail.

ADDED: Shot of the lobby of the Fisher Building in Detroit.

Just trying out the low light. Seems better than my n4 so far.

Since the view finder is 16:9 and the final image size is 4:3, I suppose it will be having a lot more of vertical space. Is there a way I can limit the image to just what is seen on the view finder. Otherwise I believe composing an image on N5 would be very hard. From the N5 photo-spheres I saw, its clear stitching has improved a lot but the output file size hasn't changed much , has anyone noticed any difference in panoramas. I always felt that panorama resolution was too low on GNex.

Do we know if the Nexus 5 supports slow motion video?

no
