We have prepared for you a list of selected smartphones available for less than Rs 15,000. The cameras of these handsets are good. Keep in mind that in this list we have included only those smartphones which we have reviewed. Apart from this, our emphasis has been on recently launched handsets only.
Best camera phones available under Rs 15,000
asus zenfone 2 laser
asus zenfone 2 laser It has a 13-megapixel rear camera with dual-tone flash and laser. The handset also has a 5 megapixel front camera. If seen on paper, the camera is much ahead compared to the rest of the specifications of the smartphone. This type of camera setup is seen in high-end devices.
Camera performance is good in suitable lighting and indoor settings. However, in daylight it gives a washed out image. This can be fixed to some extent by using HDR mode or by focusing very precisely, but it is still somewhat irritating. Photo sharpness and detail are decent for a device priced under Rs 10,000.
One thing to keep in mind is that the laser autofocus system is less effective in taking photographs at distant and open places. The reason for this is the small receiving sensor. For this reason it becomes a little difficult to take pictures of moving objects. It is clear that Zenfone 2 is more suitable for taking short distance photos with laser.
More information is recorded faster in short distance images. The laser autofocus system works quickly and focuses accurately on the object. By the way, its laser system is only slightly faster than the autofocus systems we usually come across.
The camera app is very easy to use. You get many options in this. Most of the important settings are very easy to access. It has many amazing filters and modes including time lapse, depth of field and GIF images. There are many professional options in manual mode. This smartphone was launched for Rs 9,999.
infocus m530
infocus m530 The rear camera is equipped with a 15-megapixel sensor. With this, dual flash and optical image stabilization is present. During camera testing, we found that the handset takes decent pictures in normal and low light. During this time it was successful in capturing details and colors. However, the problem of over-saturation was seen in the handset. It is worth noting that this problem also exists with other camera phones in this range.
Another feature of Infocus M530 is that it also has a 13-megapixel front camera. There is also a soft flash with the help of which users can take good selfies in low light.
During the review, we found that the camera app of Infocus 530 is well designed. And it is also easy to use. Its autofocus feature is fast and accurate. This smartphone was launched for Rs 10,999.
xolo black
xolo black Dual-camera setup can be seen on the rear panel. The rear panel has a 13-megapixel primary camera along with a 2-megapixel secondary sensor. This setup increases the speed of autofocus and gives the option to refocus on different parts of the photo. The same dual-camera feature was also present in the HTC One M8 device. The device autofocuses fast, but not very fast. The refocus feature also works well, but is not of much use. The OptiZoom and ChromaFlash features are worth mentioning. The job of OptiZoom is to improve the zoom quality of photos, but it is not that effective. Chromaflash is needed to capture two consecutive photographs, one with the flash and the other without it. After this, the software combines these frames and creates a single image, on which the effect of flash is less and the result image is also more real. Its performance made us happy.
The camera does a fine job of capturing sharp, detailed and vibrant images, but white colors appear too bright. The 5-megapixel front camera works as standard and also has its own flash. Selfie lovers will love this feature, as this flash will help in taking better selfies in low light. It would not be wrong to say that those who are fond of taking regular photos will be happy with the camera of Zolo Black.
The camera software is easy to use and has all the features and modes you’d expect from a smartphone. Two apps are provided for the camera, one with normal mode, which has many filters. Second, a dual camera app that also uses a 2-megapixel secondary camera. While using these two apps as per our need, we got a little confused. Hopefully this deficiency will be removed in the next version.
u eureka plus
from eureka eureka plus The second major change is in the camera sensor. The Eureka used the older Sony IMX135 sensor, while the Eureka Plus used the newer IMX214 sensor. Although both the devices have 13-megapixel sensors, better photography and videography can be expected thanks to IMX214. It also includes support for HDR photos and videos.
Eureka Plus camera is good. It takes detailed and sharp pictures. The colors are quite vibrant. To find the flaws in the photos, you will have to zoom in on them and view them on your desktop. However, in low light the reduction in quality of photos is clearly visible. Dark zones of the image appear more blurry. The results in HDR mode were excellent. We generally preferred shooting in HDR mode as the effect was subtle but noticeable to the eye.
We have picked another handset for you which will cost you a little more.
lenovo vibe s1
lenovo vibe s1 It has a 13 megapixel rear camera. It has a dual-tone LED flash. It comes with dual front camera setup. The primary camera on the front panel is 8 megapixels and the secondary is 2 megapixels.
We found the camera app to be good. As a user, you get many features and their controls at one place. The dual camera effects on the Lenovo Vibe S1 were very simple, but interesting.
You can superimpose another photo on the background of a photo taken with the front camera. With its help you can create many interesting selfies. This device is very special for selfie lovers. The 13 megapixel rear camera also gives good performance. This allows you to take sharp and crisp photos, no matter what the lighting conditions are. Lenovo Vibe S1 was launched at Rs 15,999.
