for all you who think you have this all figured out to be fake. look at the clouds on the second example.

Apparently, the author to this article forgot the sample shots from the Canon S95 and Canon 5DMKII for us to view in comparison to pics taken from all iPhone models. =/

Well... i have an iphone 3gs and also a Canon 5D Mark ii, compare an image of an iphone with a canon 5d is like comparing a bicycle with a ferrari but ok, first the video and now the photos... use both of them and you will see the BIG differences.

Please explain how the Canon 5D is relevant to this article...?

Never mind, I just saw they updated the article from last time I checked it to include the Canon reference.

Nice comparison but I think the 4 may have the better color and the 4s is brighter and sharper. But I think the color is off.. Hard to tell though without seeing the original item.

And you're here because?? Oh...to troll. Ok just making sure.

somebody - October 25, 2011 at 2:34am

Wow. The 2g and 3G is crap.

Sycosyiam - October 25, 2011 at 1:19am

I can understand the buildings still being there but to have the same item in the macro being in the same position yeah yeah obvious fake. 4s still the best.

kloquewerk - October 25, 2011 at 4:50am

Wow. SMH

Norton Ferreira - October 25, 2011 at 12:56am

4S camera is the best!!

Norton Ferreira - October 25, 2011 at 12:55am

Best!!

Nt02 - October 25, 2011 at 12:23am

iPhone 4 seems to have the best shots.

xoleras - October 24, 2011 at 11:46pm

the original and the 3g has been doctored, I owned every iPhone since 07, and the pictures were never this bad.

Robot - October 24, 2011 at 11:54pm

Yeah the original and the 3G aren't even in focus? Haha
