All you need to know about Sony Xperia Z's camera

Remember the Cyber-shot series that once used to offer the best imaging among smartphones? Sony is trying to conjured the same magic with the Xperia Z's 13MP camera.

The 'Superior Auto' mode, which tries to detect the scene and change settings accordingly, was special. For instance, in low-light conditions it automatically shifted to the night mode and switched from landscape to portrait as needed.

We were impressed by the scene modes like anti-motion blur, backlight correction HDR, handheld twilight, high sensitivity, gourmet and pet. The panorama mode was seamless too.

In normal mode, the 13MP camera captured images at 4128x3096p and switched to 12MP at 3920x2940p in the superior auto mode.

Sony Xperia Z's camera is easy to operate with a wide range of settings and options.
