Camera Phone Reviews

MobileTechReview reviews the Cingular 3125 and writes, "We don't expect a lot from a 1.3MP camera and the Cingular 3125 doesn't deliver a lot. It's an average camera compared to the 1.3MP competition, and we'd hoped HTC would have put a more fashionable 2MP in the STRTrk, but no such luck. Images are fairly clear with a strong dose of contrast and JPEG smoothing. In good light the camera has reasonable color fidelity but indoor lighting sends images to the magenta zone. Fortunately, the camera application lets you control the color bias which does wonders to improve shots. In fact you can also tweak the gamma and contrast to improve photos: good stuff. The phone can take photos at a maximum resolution of 1024 x 768 with lower resolutions supported for MMS and caller ID photos. You can save photos and video to internal memory or a MicroSD card. If you insert a MicroSD card, the next time you launch the camera application it will ask you if you'd like to save photos to the card. The camera supports digital zoom up to 8x (2x in the highest resolution setting), has several white balance pre-sets, a brightness control (rock the d-pad left and right to change brightness and watch the viewfinder until all looks well), a self-timer and several effects."
