Fast Capture demoed on Xperia ion, beats Galaxy Nexus

by XB on 14/01/2012

One of the big marketing points that Sony has been talking about its new smartphones is Fast Capture. Sony claims that you can take a picture from standby in just 1.5 seconds on both the Xperia ion and Xperia S. This was put into practice by the Phandroid team, who decided to put the Xperia ion up against the Galaxy Nexus to see which handset could snap a picture the quickest.

Galaxy Nexus runs Android 4.0 ICS, which features camera optimisations including zero shutter lag. However, this was still not enough to beat the Xperia ion, which was markedly quicker. Check out the video showdown below.

It would be better if they showed the pictures they had taken and compared the quality. So that we could make sure that they are not blurry at the expense of speed.

Fingerprint magnet?
Guess

I thought the zero-shutter-lag was referring to the shot to shot lag?
Is there any video comparing shot to shot time between Galaxy Nexus and Xperia S?

In this case, the Galaxy Nexus will easily win. However, as Zero Shutter Lag appears to be a feature of ICS, hopefully it will also appear in the Xperia line-up once upgraded.

it looks like the HD Reality Display is better than Super Amoled HD display.

Nice one Sony!

Want it so much but I just bought Xperia Pro 3 months ago.

it won’t be released just yet and you’ll have to wait for the ICS and probably some errors that would be greeting early adopters! :> And the next Xperia should be a lot better!!! Just bough an XPERIA RAY. So yeah! :<
