All phones running the latest available firmware with stock drivers, no modifications.

A tripod has been used for the landscape pictures.

1: Landscape taken in the shade.
2: Landscape taken in the sun.
3: Landscape taken in the sun.
4: Macro taken in the sun.
5: Macro taken in the sun (the C702 has a weird glow which is probably caused by me).
6: Macro taken in the shade.
7: Macro taken in the shade.
8: Macro taken indoors.

100% crops will be added soon, if someone wants to do it that is fine with me

You put C905, it's not C902?

The EXIF shows that it really is C902, but he probably made a mistake and wrote C905 instead.
Judging by these resized photos, C702 looks the best to me.

The N95 seems to come out on top only on the last pic. But it may be just me and my monitor.

Indeed, N95 was the best on the last one, other than that C902 rules the colour rendering. but taking into account that the resolved details due to the stronger jpeg compression on both 5mp phones were lower than the C702 the latter isn't that bad.

Yeah sorry guys, it should be C902

I'd have to add the weather was optimal yesterday, very sunny and bright. I would like to take some more pictures in less perfect conditions.

N95 looks the sharpest but the colour is a bit washed out. C702 looks to have the more vibrant colour but a bit fuzzy. C902 looks to be the happy medium, imho anyway...

Based on the first set of landscape pics, the C702 & C902 did quite well , hope you didn't spend to much on that digicam, because it's shots are quite poor.

Most of colours can be easily fixed to a more natural look by adjusting the levels in photoshop, even just using auto-levels makes for great improvements in the N95.

@number1 don't worry, I paid less than 90 pounds for the Lumix including 4gb sd card, the images are ok for it's small size. Sometimes it needs a little tweaking, which shots are poor, or all shots are poor?

I've just printed an (18x13) album and sent it to my family back home, it looks fine. It also has some pictures taken by my old C702 and K800i in there, all looking fine printed

I think for its price you get very nice specs in a small (10x5x2cm) package. I really like the starry night 10/30/60 seconds shutter times, they make for great night shots.

The landscape shots are missing alot of detail look a little flat and over processed and aren't eye pleasing, the macros are ok but still a little over processed , most compacts over process there photos you won't find 1 that doesn't, it does have a good lens though and keeps the sharpness the same corner to corner alot of cams don't and have bad barrel disortion at full wide angle, dymanic range seems a bit limted like my old p100.
The c902 landscape pics are very sharp and nice to look at, even though a bit oversharpend and alot of fringing , the C702 seems to have a poor lens on the first landscape pic it blurred the entire right hand side while the rest of the pic is nice and sharp, mine would do the same but not all the time which is werid just when it feels like it. With the macros the C702 preformed the best very sharp and nicely focused, you should do some lower light pics then the phones will stop winning.

c902 have better colours, sharpness.......
c702 is good in macro (a bit blurred in larger views, otherwise really ok)......
N95...well, what can i say, NOKIA colours all the way,(mixed quality).....im not impressed......

edit....
i agree Tranced...c702 actaully beats N95.... (because of much better macro, etc )
ps.... Blerk, I see c902 use latest R3EA038, thats one of the reasons c902 beats N95
