Mobile Phone Camera Goes Up Against $10k Medium Format

http://www.quesabesde.com/
Some guys over in Spain decided to put the crazy Nokia Purview 808, a 40MP camera phone, against a Pentax 645D medium format camera. As you can imagine, the Pentax won. But considering it has a sensor roughly 1/4 the size of the entire phone, and the phone has a sensor 1/4 the size of a postage stamp, plus the Pentax has superior optics and is valued at $10,000.00 it better have won.

But how much better was it, really?

The results are surprising, and you can compare the 2 yourself using the example below. If you are still intrigued, head over to their website. The site is in spanish, but is easily translated. There were many other comparisons and a video. Again, in spanish.
