Truly impressive, but you can still see compression artifacts. Would love to see RAW data from this camera.
And FWIW for 20mpix camera this kind of picture should have around 10mb at least, then it would really shine

Guys what do you think and how do you rate that pic is that an improvement,I am not able judge the photo at the moment,any thoughts? |

It is an improvement. It doesn't look at all like stretched image from Z which many feared would be the case. It retains high amount of details and has nice colors. Should easily replace standalone compact camera.
One thing they should still work on is compression, it's still slightly too high and you can see typical compression artifacts. But maybe it's due to pre-release version of firmware and probably camera is one of the things they'll work till the last minute. |

The device is XZU.
I'm sure of Adam outler would know if it was the ZU, you should look him up, btw why would sony go through all this trouble to hide in a case so that no one knows what it looks like but actually is the ZU while coming to the xdadevcon13??Unless Adam has a short term memory problem that he takes pictures of the ZU at 8.48(https://plus.google.com/u/0/104711040110222472212/posts/URjzZz1T3HL) and then at 11.06 posts that picture with the caption unannounced Sony device
Doesn't make any sense but still you could be right.

Please refer to the following picture which was posed and confirmed to be XZU a few months ago in a Chinese forum. The 2 pictures have too many similarities. Just my opnion.

True that, I wish Sony could give it RAW shooting capability, that should eliminate these JPEG artifacts, anyway the last time we heard RAW with a cameraphone was with Motorola ZN5.
Other than that, the image quality does look promising

I guess Razec review once the real sample out will be head on with pixels inch by inch. literally Razec will rip off each pixel,Sony be careful,becoz Razec is here  |

I am eagerly waiting for your unbaised Honami camera image samples review:),lets wait for another few weeks.

Razec, what you're pointing out is absolutely not JPEG compression but just luminance noise from the sensor (with some noise reduction). When you're packing so many pixels on such a small sensor you get more noise and it simply looks like that. Adding more JPG compression would actually smoothen out those artefacts but you'd end up with less detail.
This image was taken with JPG compression set around 90, which is very high and very close to what DSLR's use. My NEX-5R (16MP) JPG's are between 3MB and 4,5MB depending on what is in the shot, and that is on a sensor and lens that can resolve more detail than Honami.
It's already extraordinarily detailed for a sensor this size with 20MP. |

Considering that this shot was taken at ISO 64 it would have to be very noisy, but it looks like chroma noise is very low or very well controlled. IMO, they should lower luminance reduction and leave slight grain to retain sharpness and that film-like look. I think that many photographers would appreciate that.
Agree that this shot is very nice, but still needs some fine tuning. Maybe adaptive noise reduction.
Strange, my nex-5 can take shots that range from 5 to 7mb and if I use RAW's then after processing, most of the time, they reach 10mb all with 14mpix
All in all, I still think that it looks very good but needs some fine tuning. Curious how low light high ISO pictures look like and how high ISO good light shots look like. |

Guys this sample photo is practically macro shot, and all camera phones shine at macro photography, what is really hard and tests camera quality thoroughly are landscape shots, and till I'll see such photo from Honami, can't really say much about quality, knowing Sony it won't be mind blowing  |
Wishmaster89 Joined: Jun 02, 2006 Posts: 333 From: Warsaw, Poland PM |
Doesn't matter if its macro shot or not, the processing is the same and this is what we're discussing right now. You can see that it retains high amount of details so if it can properly focus at infinity with appropriate depth of field for landscape shot then there shouldn't be any problem with getting high quality picture.
What sony should work on is eliminating this kind of halo that is visible on this particular picture, lower luminance noise reduction should help. |

^^ If you're referring to the visible color fringing on the garmin logo as well as the bright reflective portion of the bike then I think the problem is on the lens, not processing, DSLR lenses usually come equipped with special coatings which reduces this kind of defect.
