To me daylight photos look about the same as x10 so good quality. But night photos look ok ish. One uploaded by Mizzle in photos section was dreadful(sorry mizzle). I am getting Neo already ordered but I have not got it just cos of camera. A good lowlight test will be a street full of lights at night

I preordered a blue arc yesterday. They told me it would take almost 2 weeks before I get it. Cant hardly wait! 
So in two weeks I have a black SE Satio for sale. You can get it for the price of a meal!
Where have you ordered it from if you don't mind me asking?

So as we can see, Arc's camera isn't a disaster, but Exmor-R is worth nothing. Maybe it's not a bad sensor itself, but v. cheap optics and/or terrible "Sony style" noise reduction? |

Don't know what to say... But i am disappointed in SE (lol again?). That Exmor R is just a HUUUUUUGE gimmick, nothing more. I was only looking at the Arc because i thought it will have a better camera than the rest (Neo and Pro). But seems like it will be the exact same performance on all (i doubt the Pro will be worse than this lol, that would be G900 quality). I admit, the design is extraordinary, the hardware looks good, but sony lost the camera battle a long time ago. I know it wasnt promised as a cameraphone, but it could have been better (if the camera would have been tuned up more).
Sum it up: excellent design, good OS, bad* camera or camera software (don't know exactly which one).
* where bad means worse than Satio, N8, C905 and others. Pity because it has been a while since those phones where launched.
Such things make me think about optimus 2x... |

you cant really compare the Arc with any of the C-series phones (the focus is not the camera on the arc as it was on the cybershot phones, beein superior with xeion flash and other camera goodies)

But C series are dead already. SE dropped it for the Xperia line. So all that was C series can go into Xperia. Maybe they will add more contrast to the pictures and video and remove that white fog that is always present in the latest SE phones.
We arent in 2008 anymore, i know they can get much more out from the camera driver... I know it wasnt promised to be a camera hit phone, but it's 2011, and technology has evolved alot. And people ARE EXPECTING something when you shout out loud 100x that it will use Exmor R sensor

Well you would expect it to be speedy to be honest. |

Looks like those few of us in Canada will have Both the Arc and the Play.

That testing youtube video doesn't prove much ... load several large apps and switch to the menu again ... if it remains that fast I'll be super impressed.
Common guys ... have faith ...  put out a seriously good product. Give them time for an update or two in the firmware ... I'll bet the video quality and camera quality improve significantly.
Remember the days of less than VGA video recording on older QuickShare phones?! ugggh that was seriously painful. then again stuck on vga for years while the competition rose to the challenge? Now SE is with the big dogs.
i cannot WAIT for liquid lens camera with true optical zoom without increasing slim form factor thickness.

Yes, we can only hope they will focus more on the acctual camera than gimics to sell it to the masses.
like i said before, the "speed" is what impresses me the most compared to the slow x10.
