> These small cameras make heaps of trade offs This is true, but it's not really so clear in this case. The dpreview review came to the conclusion that the weird tinge was probably an inadvertent result of a combination of various factors, and it seems quite possible that Apple simply didn't realize it was there. Even if it was an intentional tradeoff for some other advantage (e.g. a harder-to-scratch lens), it seems obvious enough that Apple misjudged its impact, and that it bothers people more than they expected. Clearly it's very possible to make a great cellphone camera without the tinge (as evidenced by the many phones that have them), so it seems pretty likely to me that Apple will quietly fix this in the next model. Even Apple lives and learns (with the iphone 5 more than usual, it seems)... [This is annoying to me because I love shooting into the sun. I was vaguely thinking of picking up an iphone 5, but this and other factors (e.g. the crappy maps) have put a real damper on that thought.... oh well... :( ]
