REVIEW
the Sony IMX378, and that’s a good thing. The only
difference you’ll find is the absence of any ‘bokeh’
effects. This is a 12Mp lens (previously 16Mp), with an
f/2.0 aperture, phase-detection autofocus, four-axis
OIS, 1.25μm pixels and a dual-tone flash.
It didn’t wow us as other flagship cameras have,
but it’s by no means a poor offering. Detail is sharp,
colours realistic, and low-light photography is
acceptable if not the best we’ve seen, provided you
allow it time to properly focus.

and opposite, with auto and HDR settings respectively,
and then in a low-light scene (opposite).Auto settings
