How's the iPod touch 6 for taking photos? iPhone 6 is the winner

Last week, Apple updated the iPod touch 6. The new device is equipped with an 8-megapixel iSight camera, a significant improvement over the 5-megapixel camera in the iPod touch 5. The A8 system-on-chip image sensor processor supports hardware image processing, and the aperture remains F/2.4.

So how does the iSight camera perform in practice? Let's take a look at the comparison between the iPod touch 6 and the iPod touch 5, iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6 to understand where the camera of this device ranks among Apple's many devices.

It has created the world's most popular camera - of course, most of these cameras are related to the iPhone. At the same time, it has also influenced other mobile devices, first the iPad Air 2 and now the iPod touch 6.

The cameras are so popular not only because of their quality, but also because they are connected. They are used on iOS devices, which means they can use all the apps on the App Store that support sharing and editing photos.

The size and weight of the iPod touch are just right to hold in your hand or put in your pocket, and as long as there is a network available, you can use apps and platforms such as iMessage, Instagram, Waterlogue, etc. to edit and share photos. In short, the iPod touch's camera and massive applications are enough to meet your needs.

Compared to the iPod touch 5, the iPod touch 6 may win the photo comparison. This is because the new generation of iPod touch has a higher pixel camera and the processor has been upgraded from A5 to A8. Although the iPad Air 2 uses the A8X processor, the difference between the two is the GPU. The iPhone 6 has the same camera pixel and processor as the iPod touch 6, but it uses an F/2.2 aperture and a pixel size of 1.5 microns, so there should be a difference between the two in low light conditions.

The following sample photos are taken from iPod touch 6, iPod touch 5, iPad Air 2 and iPhone 6. They were all taken using the device's native camera app. The weather was cloudy, no flash was used, and HDR was turned on.

The above comparison is as expected, just like the iPod touch 5 and iPhone 5 camera comparison in 2012. The iPod touch 6 camera is much better than the iPod touch 5, on par with the iPad Air 2, but still a little behind the iPhone 6.

Unless you're someone who often needs to shoot in low-light conditions, with the current camera hardware on the iPod touch 6, as long as there's enough light and you can make full use of the vast array of apps in the App Store, Apple's 8-megapixel camera is more than enough for you to show off your skills.
