Micromax Canvas Win W121 Camera Details

Canvas Win sports an 8 MP rear camera which is a decent autofocus unit support BY LED flash. The focus didn’t take much time and the images were pretty decent in low light condition. We liked it better than Nokia Lumia 630 camera unit which is the main competitor.

As you can see in the image, there is some visible noise  but the details and color is quite decent.

Notice the difference when the object in Focus is changed. In the Image below the Handy cam is in focus

The false ceiling image also shows some noise and blurry edges

Nokia Lumia 630 Camera Comparison and Conclusion

The camera performance was inconsistent, but we did manage to capture some decent shots with it. Its definitely not the best 8 MP shooter that we have seen but you could do a lot worse in this price range. Take a look at the two comparison shots to get a better perspective.
