5 megapixel Motorola ZN5 nears
5 megapixel, Motorola and Kodak ring a bell? Well, a 5MP co-branded shooter is obviously just around the corner. What's even better, some leaked pictures shed... Update 5 May: official photos
Calm down. It's a prototpy and not a finished retail version optimized for good pictures. Firmware and software still buggy and unfinished. The pictures are too big processed and that's why it looks so blurry. Also it's cloudy and no sunshine!
We can better see the potential with resized pictures. Here for example 1280x960 this one: http://www.abload.de/img/zn5_t...1280x8i0.jpg
It's not bad for a prototyp.

Nah, Motorola needs to do better than this if they want to compete with Nokia, LG, Samsung & SE. Unless of course they would sell their camera phones around $300, then they might have a chance. But if they want to compete, they need to improve the design and the picture quality. Nokia also needs improvement in the design department, SE also, but Nokia is an awesome performer among the rest, and it is not as ugly as this one. Those pictures taken from this phone just does not level with other 5mp camera phones out there. I do understand though that this is just the beta stage. Hopefully they make dractic improvements both on design and camera quality.

it'll be definitly the best. beating iphone in all ways. i hope that when motorola anounces it oficially, it becomes better then N96. people might say i'm dreaming but i'm definitly not. GO MOTO, GO! it has always been the best and, yes, they've been not so advanced comparing to nokia and sony ericsson but it's still the best. the rokr phones are much better then walkman ones.

the problem with motorola isn't the quality of their phone, it's their timing. for instance the rizr z10 with its 3 megapixel camera is great, had this been january 1997 or earlier. now with cameras sporting 5 megapixels like no one's business, motorola seems kind of trying to catch up, sort of the little engine that couldn't. they need some new innovations, sort of like the razr when it first came out. might i suggest vga quality screens on all cellphones from now on. maybe all phones quad band from now on. maybe also dual sim that works simultaneously. u know, the niceties. and finally, get it out the door quickly!

The only thing I hate more than the hate comments is the poor english in which they're written. At least put effort in it people.
This phone does the trick for me, slim, for everyday use, good looks and a decent camera. We all know those are prototype shots, so please stop being crying little girls about it.

Did you not realize those pics were taken in the evening, or maybe at night? At LOW LIGHT? No other camphone can do this. Way to go Motorola!

It seems that the moto should follow the siemens track -- sell their mobile phone division before it goes into bankruptcy.

Oh from now it's Babye Moto... well Camera Quality is Poor when Compared with Sony Ericsson K850i or Compared with The King N95 8GB
and yeah it's design is also not good.. It would be much better if you go for LG Viewty it has much better camera then this and the price is Almost Same!

I think the kodak is only a marketing gimmick.They're desperate to compete with nokia and samsungs 5 mp cam w/c i thnk already been out 10 mos. Ago...If only sony and samsung wil also releasd the phones they only releasd in japan and korea respectively,nokia and motorolas latest wil look like obsolete phones.
