The best Android tablet camera just got better (pictures)

Since the Transformer Prime's debut, a Transformer tablet has hosted the best Android tablet camera. While the 8-megapixel back camera on the TF300 was impressive, the TF700's is even more so.

Him again

Yep, our old tablet-camera-testing friend, Foxy Brown (that's what I call him, at least), is back and is once again ready for his closeup. The TF700 includes an 8-megapixel back camera with an F/2.2 aperture.

Disturbing...

Lynn La helps creep me out test the TF700's back camera quality.

Ahh, that's better

A much more appropriate (and a lot less creepy) pic of Lynn, doing her own testing thing.

Contrast

Donald Bell's desk is rife with sunlight, toys, gadgets, and other geeky fun stuff. You know, like sunlight! NEEEEERRRDDD!

Don't judge

Pay no attention to the titles of these books and focus your attention instead on the fine detail of each book's spine that the camera was able to capture.

Looks better on the tablet

This picture actually looks better (no noticeable aliasing) when viewed on the tablet or at its full resolution.

Natural beauty

Another detailed, natural shot. Oh wait, no, this is the first...and only.

Not my car

No, this isn't my car, but that didn't stop me from seizing an opportunity to use its engine for my own, professional purposes.
