Sony Ericsson has really been pushing its camera technology with the latest Xperia smartphones. The Xperia arc, Xperia Neo and Xperia Pro will all ship with an 8.1MP Exmor R sensor, with one of the highlights being increased sensitivity under low-light conditions. SE has a very good demonstration of this at MWC, where they have closed boxes with a small hole at the front. You can then use one of the Xperia handsets to see what’s inside the box.
The Exmor R sensor makes easy work of the dark and you can easily see the object inside. People are then invited to use their own handsets (an Xperia X10 is used in the video below) to show that other phones can’t match the Exmor R with only a black image displayed. Check out the video below and another of a night fountain display in Barcelona taken by the Xperia arc.
