Those are pretty good.
Were those HDR or just lots of editing?

What's the spec of the camera on that phone?

Its an 8mp not sure what aperture they are tho.

They were just normal shots as i was at work(not a bad view tbh!) Then edited in Lr.

It does seem to be very good, even in low light conditions.

it did surprise me tbh, I've used compacts that struggle more with shooting into the sun!

The first one is really good and even looking at it larger on Flickr, you can see the sharpness of the tree branches.
I'm impressed. Maybe I need to upgrade my HTC to a Galaxy S2.

I really want an S2, although the new HTC's that are coming out look great. Still another 10 months till my contract expires though  :sad:

i want nothing more from a phone than what an s2 does tbh. i had 11 months left on a contract and it was 100 quid to end it early and they gave me 85 quid for my iphone 3g 16gb.

I have around the same (we got our phones within a few weeks of each other iirc) but I can upgrade at the end of Jan, online only though! But don't think I will otherwise I'll have to wait 6 months (left on the contract) + another 18 months (soonest upgrade time) before I can upgrade again, just going to see what around from end of Jan.

Mine runs out end of november 2012, but if I stay with vodafone (which I will) I can upgrade september. I'll find out about terminating the contract early, however.....does mazuma buy rooted phones??
