Sony’s 8-MegaPixel Camera Is Expected In iPhone 5

These days we are hearing many rumors regarding iPhone 5, but the most expected thing we can see in iPhone 5 is Sony’s 8 Mega Pixel camera. It has confirmed in an interview with Sony official in which he said that you can expect 8 megapixel camera in iPhone 5, but due to the Tsunami in Japan, Sony might get late in shipping the camera sensors to Apple.

Sony's 8-MegaPixel Camera Is Expected In iPhone 5

Before the launch of iPhone 4G, there were rumors that Apple will provide 5 megapixel of camera in 4G but it has just used OmniVision sensor till now. iPhone is the best phone in the whole world. I am not just saying this from my own but different surveys have proved this. Samsung, HTC, Nokia are in the competition with Apple, so it really has to work hard for maintaining its standard. The collaboration of Sony and Apple in regard of camera will add a plus point to its sales.
In present time Sony’s 8 megapixel camera is installed in Sony Ericsson phone that is XPERIA. This camera sensor will benefit Apple users a lot and then they can take pictures even in low or dim light. It should also be noted that every product of Apple is having camera of OmniVision and if iPhone gets the 8-MegaPixel camera of Sony then more probably, iPad 3 will also come up with the Sony camera installed in it.

Expected Features of iPhone 5 Camera:

It will be of 8-megapixel.
It will be Able to take pictures in low light.
The pictures will be High resolution.
It contains better zooming options.
The videos will be of high quality with better frame rate.

These all are the views about the Camera of iPhone 5, it is most expected feature but one cannot assure this, as it can be just a rumor. So everyone should have to wait for iPhone 5 release.
