uk today has given this information: the first two photos (the yellow orb and the no-arms) were taken with a Samsung Tocco lite phone and the third photo (indoor shot) was with a Sony ericsson Z750i. I don't know about the last photo (the reference photo of the open door so we can see there's no glass).
I admit I don't know anything about how camera phones work, I did try to look it up and the sources I found didn't say anything about "caching". It was more like building charges over the course of a digital "shutter release" time that could then be measured.
If it works like you say, how many frames per second are captured, or does that vary by phone model? How is "shutter speed" varied -- by capturing more or fewer frames? Honest questions here, I'm just trying to figure this out.

I cannot believe there's twenty pages of discussion about this one dodgey picture.
Going back to the original title, it say photos - plural.
So where are the other photos?
I say delete this whole topic - it's wasting everyone's time.

Thanks.

Firstly, not sure why people are using HDR style techniques etc ... on a mobile phone photo. There isn't enough data there - it's already a mess to begin with. The kernal/filter thingo I saw before would just introduce more contrast and confusion??? I don't know, maybe am missing something.

The 'blotch of paint' can clearly be seen below the second door ridge.

However, the 'hand' is clearly above the top ridge.

So definitely 2 separate things in my opinion...

It simple, really: it doesn't matter whether a photo comes from a mobile phone or an Hasselblad, you capture both low and high frequencies anyway.
The thing is we can do something with them, and this is why image analysis techniques exist for,
