To see which camera sensor is installed in your own Galaxy S6 / Galaxy S6 edge, you can check by selecting "* # 34971539 #" from the phone menu and selecting "ISP VER CHECK" . For models equipped with IMX 240, "IAR Ver: SONY _IMX 240 _ FIMC _ IS" is written at "Rear Camera", which indicates that Sony made IMX 240 is installed.


On the other hand, "ISP Ver: SLSL_S5K2P2_FIMC_IS" is displayed for terminals equipped with ISOCELL sensor.


Although it is said that two types of sensors are used depending on the terminal, how much difference is made in the final photograph? So I got both MX240 equipped terminal and ISOCELL equipped terminalAsif SIs comparing pictures.

The above picture is Samsung's ISOCELL and the picture below is Sony's IMX 240. Impression that IMX 240 is slightly brighter.



ISOCELL on the left and IMX 240 on the right. The purple one of IMX 240 seems somewhat brilliant whether it is on the red side.


The top is ISOCELL and the bottom is IMX 240. The IMX 240 is slightly brighter, and the contrast of clouds is stronger with ISOCELL.



The yellow moss part is hard to understand the difference, but Sony IMX 240 on the right side looks a little orange brilliantly.


The top is ISOCELL and the bottom is IMX 240.



ISOCELL on the left and IMX 240 on the right, ISOCELL looks more bluish.


The top is ISOCELL and the bottom is IMX 240. The IMX 240 seems to be characterized by blue appearance being slightly violet.



The difference is obvious at a glance comparing the state of the sea.


However, the following two are ISOCELL on the top and IMX240 on the bottom, but the blue one of IMX 240 appears vividly.



The difference appeared quite blue way.


ISOCELL (upper) and IMX 240 (lower) shot with HDR turned on. Overall, the IMX 240 is a brighter impression, ISOCELL is on the blue side, the light reflected in the building is on the blue side, IMX 240 is on the purple side.



As a whole, the picture taken with the IMX240 terminal is slightly brighter and gives a warm finish. Also, in the case of a bright place, the IMX 240 will be closer to the actual color, but in the dark place the ISOCELL equipped terminal will approach the actual color. And Asif S who took a picture says that the picture taken with the IMX240 equipped terminal has a bigger file size.
