Camera displays with a high resolution promise a good picture reproduction. But the pixel count alone is not decisive for it, how detailed we perceive a monitor image. In our article "camera display" we explain, why also the display size, the viewing distance and our eyes take influence.

The device selection of the lensTESTER test area was supplemented by the camera models Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, Fujifilm X-A10 and Panasonic Lumix DC-GX800. In addition, a total of 19 more lenses are available for selection.

With Alcatel's TCT Idol 4S, Sony's Xperia X Compact and Xperia XZ, the VCX score now includes three more smartphones. Based on the ranking list and the single results, you can compare the image quality of the new and all already tested smartphone cameras.

We are pleased to introduce the VCX Score Update Version 1.5

In order to reflect the user experience better and to make the score of the different shooting condition better comparable and more intuitive, the VCX score was revised and has been updated as of 22.12.2016. The update leads to a lower score for all devices compared to version 1.0. As technologies are constantly improving, this also enables keeping the VCX score valid for a longer period of time.

We have reduced the international shipping costs that will occur when ordering the test chart. When delivering one lensTESTER to an address outside of Germany (for example: United States), shipping costs are about 10 Euro*. Shipment is still insured.

Our website is also now available in German. To switch between the languages English and German, just click on a country flag.
