The e-price macros were very good, the outdoor ones not so much, but I believe this may have been to do with the 3D sweep function being used for the outdoor shots and if you look closely there is a fair amount of ghosting on the image. |

Here are some more pictures:
And this one shot in panorama mode:

Still a little bit of compression noise on those photos when cropped to 100pc, although it's an improvement on the Arc. Again, photos coming in bigger a 3-3.5mb.
I hope the camera application has the ability to select the compression level, but sadly I don't think this is the case. |

No, compression level can't be set.

Still, I think the compression levels and amount of resolved detail aren't that bad. Here's a pic from the Satio for comparison:

Rog, that does'n look to good when cropped. If these are iso64 shots, then how will look iso200 ones? There's been no progress in S(E) picture processing for 3-4 years. And it probably won't get any better, because these shots have sony/se dna all over them. |

Best Xperia so far for picture quality imo is the Ray
Phone?? What phone?? |

Yes, Ray seems to get the balance of sharpness and detail just right. I also rated the X10's camera.
I don't know how SE can change these things when fundamentally the sensor is the same in the Ray and the Arc.
Xperia S is looking better the more I see the photos in detail, still needs a little less compression noise to beat the current best SGS2. |

Photo quality same as Arc, but resolution seems to increase a bit. Hope they make end result processing same as result from Iphone 4s!~ |

Let's hope so. |

On GSMArena it doesn't look like it.

GSM Arena have zero idea on taking photos. I have some I took in sunshine during summer & they were clear,sharp & colourful compared to Arc or Neo. The shots they took came out very different to what I got

GSM Arena has just standarized, technical and well known method for taking photos and comparing them between devices.
So there is nothing to know or not know to about it, it's just pure technical objective method which is closer to reality
than your random tries.
We can argue of course if this test is good enough to say everything about the phone's camera,
and IMO it's just not complete because there might be situations when one phone takes much better shots than the other
even if it lost in comparative test.
But my sister has Ray and I have Arc and there is definitely no real difference between these,
and definitely not in fovour of Ray.

And here some "night" shots (second one is giving a hint on the Android version the S will launch on ):
