MacRumors have found a link to a YouTube video showing a side-by-side comparison of the iPhone and iPhone 4S’ video abilities.
We wouldn’t call it a scientific professional test by any means and its certainly not how we conduct our lab tests here at theappwhisperer.com but it is still interesting to view. Colors look brighter on the iPhone 5 and the image stabilization (both videos were handheld) looks improved on the 5 too.

The video stabilization is indeed better. But the automatic contrast enhancement appears to be too much.

I am still pleased with my 4S, the colors look better. Will upgrade until 5S comes out.
