First camera comparisons of the Nokia N8 and the iPhone 4 emerge

The first batches of shots taken with a Nokia N8 and an iPhone 4 side-by-side are in, and the results seem to be quite predictable. Apple's iPhone 4 produces bright, colorful images by default - the way most people like their photos.

Nokia N8 has taken more accuracy-friendly approach, and captures a bit more detail with its 12MP camera, while the "Vivid" mode is left as an option in the camera settings.

We are posting a few comparison shots below, the Polaroid-like strips are CNET's comparison with a Fujifilm Finepix J150w digital camera - hit the source links for more imagery.
