2014-10-28
this episode of TechnoBuffalo is brought to you by citrix gotoassist the number one global market leader and remote support what's going on guys the mark and Sangan from TechnoBuffalo and today we'll be comparing the cameras on the iPhone 6 plus and the galaxy note 4 and over I'll see which one comes out on top so before we get started we're just gonna be comparing the cameras on both of these devices we'll eventually do a full comparison between the six plus and the note 4 in the coming weeks but for now let's see how the cameras on these to perform now from experience a lot of the Samsung devices I've tried in the past tends to give my images a bit more of a sharpen look than normal and with the Galaxy Note 4 is new or 16 megapixel shooter that's not really the case this here it's not that the overprocess images are gone it's still present but it's not as drastic as the previous devices have tried now in terms of specs the Galaxy Note 4 is equipped with a 16 megapixel camera with OAS and an F 2.2 aperture lens it's capable of recording 4k videos at 30 frames per second and 1080p at 60 frames per second as well as slow-motion 720p the front-facing camera is equipped with a 3.7 megapixel camera with an F 1.9 aperture and a really really wide lens the iPhone 6 plus on the other hand is equipped with an 8 megapixel iSight camera with oh is and f 2.2 aperture lens it has face detection autofocus or what Apple is calling it focus pixels it's capable of reporting 1080p at 60 frames per second and slow-motion 720p at 240 frames per second now the front-facing camera is equipped with a 1.2 megapixel camera with an F 2.2 aperture and it's capable of recording HD or 720p videos now on paper the Galaxy Note 4 blows the iPhone 6 plus out the water but the iPhone 6 plus still holds its own when it comes to mobile photography it's not always gonna be about the megapixels but it mostly boils down on the sensor now both cameras take excellent pictures and it'll be hard for most people to tell the difference between each camera and acceptable lighting the optical image stabilization on both devices help keep pictures sharp and clean but the colors and contrast slightly vary between the two devices now like I mentioned in the beginning the Galaxy Note 4 has really improved its camera buying over processing their images as much though in certain cases it is still present I do love the ability to crop an image without losing as much quality on a note for and that's where that 16 megapixel comes in handy the 8 megapixel camera on the iPhone 6 plus is good too though you won't be able to crop as much compared to the note 4 but in terms of performance the iPhone 6 plus performs like a champ it's focused pixels up to ton when focusing on a subject and it works really well the note 4 is so so it's great outdoors and good lighting though I did notice the frame rates tend to drop when shooting in medium to low light conditions and speaking of low-light shots I actually prefer the iPhone 6 plus here to exposure seems to be more acceptable colors are more accurate whereas the note 4 still tries to overcompensate the image to where sometimes everything is blown out and quality becomes really muddy now camera UI I like both they're both fairly easy to use and simplistic though the note 4 does offer more shooting modes and software tweaks whereas the iPhone only provides you with the basics HDR flash timer and the basic iOS filters though I do like the exposure slider on the iPhone which makes setting up shots quicker and the note 4 offers the same feature but it's deep within the settings button let's take a quick break from this video and thank our friends over at Citrix with go to system pro support you can provide live and unattended

ability to shoot in 4k will come in handy for those who are looking to go past full HD now this is a huge advantage for the note 4 and being able to scale down that 4k video into 1080p will definitely help in the long run being able to crop move the frame and it will give you much more flexibility when editing a video though in terms of actual video quality like the iPhone six-plus camera a bit better oh is with cinematic stabilization is amazing and colors are more natural compared to the note for now I'm not saying that the video capability on the note 4 is bad but I just prefer how the iPhones video looks in I can say the same for slow motion video the note 4 can film at 120 frames per second at 720p but it doesn't look as good and smooth as the iPhones 240 frames per second nonetheless the ability to shoot in 4k is amazing and the note 4 does a pretty respectable job at it but if you want to have some fun with slow-mo and then the iPhone is your best bet now when it comes to the front-facing cameras there's so much to like on the note 4 Samsung's added a bunch of software tweaks and features to somewhat add more flavor than their camera though the wide-angle lens is what makes the front-facing camera in my opinion so awesome you have a much wider shot compared to the iPhone 6 plus and you have different modes and tweaks to choose from which the iPhone azar really offer in terms of quality again the iPhone 6 plus still produces a much better photo but the difference is not too drastic here in low-light that's when the note 4 starts to deteriorate skin tones and quality just looks really bad while the iPhone 6 plus is still holding on and so the red things are for you guys I really like 6 pluses camera the Galaxy Note 4's camera is really good too and Samsung's doing a really really good job at improving it make sure to stay tuned for our full comparison with these two devices in a few weeks or so and as always a märklin sanger from
