Check out this photo quality comparison of all six generation iPhones by Lisa Bettany.

Photo comparisons from all iPhone version cameras taken with Camera+ (First generation iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4, the iPhone 4S, and the new iPhone 5) in three situations showing both the original photo and a detailed view (zoomed to 100%) of each photo.

● A well lit macro setting to test detail and quality of the cameras
● A skyline shot to test sharpness and saturation
● A candle lit low light macro photo to test noise.

• Clear improvment here. • 3GS has yellowish tint and lil bit more noise. 5 is better. • And i dont know what are some people talking about the pix of the empire state building must have been taken approx the same time. You can see the shadow of the dish barely moved.

The 4S shot is actually better than the 5 for close-up, however the 5 is superior for the distance shot. Quite interesting to see.

While I agree that the 3GS was a revolution, in all of the pictures, except the last one, the 4 did the best. In the last one I thought the 5 did the best.

Technically iPhone 4s and 5 have exactly the same camera. There shouldn't be any difference

I wonder what happened with the 4's. And it's amazing how shitty the original iPhone was.
