#Micromax Canvas Turbo vs #Gionee Elife E6: Camera shootout

We put two 13-megapixel cameras to the test. Which one will reign?

We’ve seen a face-off between the Turbo and the Elife E6 in our specifications comparison and now it’s time to take a look at how well their cameras perform. Both phones have a 13MP BSI sensor around the back so it’s an even playing field. The real challenge will be in the post-processing. We’ve already reviewed the Gionee Elife E6 and liked how blazing fast the auto-focus was. The Turbo on the other hand lacks these lightning reflexes and takes its time focusing, which could limit the type of shots you can take. So without further ado, here’s our preliminary comparison between the two cameras under varied lighting conditions.  All comparison shots are 100 percent crops of the original image unless stated otherwise. Macro test 1 Full image 100 percent crop Both phones manage good macros here under bright sunlight. The Gionee tends to have a sharper focus and picks up slightly more detail as compared to the Turbo. That had a tough time focusing on the lock, but in the end, managed it pretty well.  Landscape Full image 100 percent crop Here, we test to see how well the cameras are able to handle detail in the horizon. Both phones do an average job here but the Gionee has more natural, warmer tones as compared to the Turbo.  Macro test 2 Full image 100 percent crop We once again had a tough time getting the camera to focus on the Turbo but in the end, the E6 inches ahead with slightly better colours and detail.
