Sanyo SCP-8400
Infosync reviews the Sanyo SCP-8400 and writes, "The camera on the SCP-8400 is above average for a multimedia phone, but it won't be competing with Nokia's high-end camera offerings any time soon. Image colors were accurate, though bright lights tipped the balance toward overexposure. Sanyo claims a dial near the lens will switch between macro and landscape images, but there was no visible difference between the two. Time between shots was a little slow, about four seconds, and navigating the camera's settings was confusing, as menus had ambiguous names such as "Picture Mode," and "Image Controls." The photo album viewer was disappointing, with no zoom and no quick method for sending pictures to the computer via Bluetooth. The camera boasts an LED flash, but it was hardly effective, as low-light pictures were too grainy to be useful. The camcorder -- low resolution though it is -- functions well, without stutter or blurring."
CNET reviews the Sanyo SCP-8400 and writes, "The phone's internal 60MB of memory holds up to 123 high-resolution pictures or more than 1,278 at the lowest resolution. Alternatively you can use a Micro SD card to save even more of your work. Video clip length ranges from 35 seconds to up to 2 hours depending on the available memory. Pictures are mostly clear, though some object outlines were a bit fuzzy. Also, while colors were good overall, orange overpowered all other hues. Video clips were somewhat better though they showed a heavy amount of pixilation."
PCMag reviews the Sanyo SCP-8400 and writes about the phone's camera: "The 8400's 1.3MP camera takes somewhat soft, underexposed, but well saturated shots that you store in the 61MB of internal memory or on a MicroSD card. Video mode takes quite good videos, at 176-by-144 and 15 frames per second, and you can film up to the capacity of the card. You can offload your photos via Bluetooth to your PC, by using a card reader, or by printing them directly to a PictBridge-compatible printer."
