Is this the first test photo of the iPhone 5?
Look at that plate, tasty enough to eat! Clear shot that is apparently the first picture taken with the next generation iPhone. According to PocketNow they stated that “This (very attractive) photo claims to have been taken by an iPhone 4, but the rest of its EXIF data tells a different story: although the image has been cropped to 2235×2291 (5.12 megapixels), the original picture was a much larger 3264×2448 — or just shy of eight megapixels. What’s more, the lens was recorded as a 4.3mm f/2.4, which is closer to that of a point-and-shoot than the iPhone 4′s actual 3.85mm f/2.8.”
The iPhone 5 has long been rumoured to come with an increased camera from 5 megapixels to 8 megapixels. There’s still no word on when the iPhone 5 will be released, latest dates around the web are late October.

You do realize this is based on EXIF data from the photo right? Not just someone saying they used an iPhone 5.
Though I’m sure EXIF data can be spoofed as well.

And?…do you have proof of that and not the link to that file in the source which is just the same picture? Geez, you iSheep can never think outside of how someone would want you guys to think when it comes to news related to Apple…

A simple google search for “edit exif data” yields 6,310,000 results on how to do it. You can rename the device to iDevice 9378293 if you really want to. What’s the big deal?
Also, Firefox has a plugin that allows you to view exif data of any picture on a webpage.

You’re joking if you think that’s even close to the N8 quality. N8 goes up against DSLRs.

I’m surprised no one has said it yet, but he quality of that photo is HORRIBLE.
Let’s hope it’s a fake and not really indicative of the iPhone 5 camera quality.

People so caught up in megapixels. More emphasis needs to be put on lens and focus quality then whether or not its 5, 8 or 12 mp. My ancient Nokia N95 5mp still takes better pictures than most of the new phones today.

As usual, the sheep prefer quantity over quality. Show someone an 8MP f4.5 and a 4MP f1.8 and they’ll take the 8MP every time.

Why do phone news sites insist on acting as though when Apple does something, it’s groundbreaking. There’ve been 8mp phone cams for how long now? Nokia’s got a 12mp on the N8.
Seriously? Knock it off.

It was cropped from a larger 8 megapixel image because you were able to see the reflection of a naked Japanese guy in the spoon next to the plate.

And what a shock it is to see the android defense force commenting on an apple related post like its going out of style.
why don’t you tools go and fap fap fap at a spec sheet or one of your biweekly android phone releases which become obsolete in a month.
douchebags!

Who really cares? Anyone who takes quality photos knows the quality has more to do with lighting, bracketing and camera optics (which will never touch dedicated cameras of the same vintage)And I agree with an earlier poster, that’s a crap picture.

Apple has a tendency of depriving its loyal customers of basic features in phones produced before the iProducts are released. The quality of the picture, be it a 5MP or 8MP, is still s**t. Apple loves to think they are re-inventing the wheel with every new product launch. iTards.
