IntoMobile,Motorola MOTOZINE ZN5 reviewed – Picture quality is top-notch,

Motorola's latest flagship cameraphone has been making the rounds of late. The folks over at Crave managed to get their hands on the 5 megapixel Kodak-branded cameraphone that is the Motorola MOTOZINE ZN5, and they've posted the sample photo you see to the left. (full-resolution version here)
One of the ZN5' highlights (aside from that high-quality camera, of course) is that it doesn't bear any resemblance to the tired RAZR styling that Motorola has been pushing on us for years. A quick flick of the camera lens cover affects a lickity-split camera start-up time, and shutter lag (an annoying problem with many high-end cameraphones) was almost non-existent.

The Xenon flash helps light up dark-shots, but the one thing that seems at odds with the Kodak-branding is that neither the optics nor the image sensor were touched by Kodak. The imaging giant apparently played a limited role in developing the camera interface.

All in all, the Motorola ZN5 proved to be a competent cameraphone, but the lack of 3G may be a deal-killer for many high-end handset enthusiasts out there – perhaps that explains Motorola's decision to debut this handset in China.
