DPReview use Kevin’s scientific data in their reviews, as they show here, “The DxOMark team reports the iPhone 6 shows “very good overall exposure, impressive autofocus performance in both low and bright light, good color rendering and nice detail preservation outdoors and indoors”. The engineers were also impressed with the new device’s flash behaviour which resulted in “good exposure, stable white balance, good color rendering, low noise level and good detail preservation.”
On the downside there is “luminance noise visible in low light conditions and color quantification, ghosting and fringing noticeable on HDR pictures.”
