I've borrowed a friends' DSLR on pretense of buying it.
To test its quality, I took some pics and compared them to my point & shoot and to my camera phone. I find the results surprising.
Attached is a newspaper, shot from ~2ft away with a 500watt halogen light.
That capital Y is about 1.5mm high.
The pics are white balanced and enlarged by 200% (so each 1x1 camera pixel is 2x2 in the attached images)
The 3 pics are (randomly):
1] Which pic do you think is best?
2] Can you match the pic to the camera?

- LG Smartphone 8MP (new)
- Canon 630 6MP (5 years old)
