my gripe really is about how this phone is a sony ericsson with a 1.3megapixel cam but cant zoom when the nokia
6630 (effective resolution 1.23 megapixels for image capture (1280 x 960 pixel resolution) or
6680 with a 1.3 integrated 1.3 megapixel camera sensor (1.23 megapixel effective resolution, 1280 x 960 pixels) with 6x digital zoom and slide for camera protection, activation, and control
both of these can zoom very well!

why do you bother for the digital zoom...it doesn't matter at all as when the zoomed picture is put on a pc it's just the center part of the original picture

@ pepi, exactly! digital zoom is crap, if one wants to zoom in on a pic - do so on the PC. zoom on camera phones is crap generally anyway, unless you have a sharp 902 or 903 or something that has optical zoom

Is the w550i cam really that bad? Can you try posting a pic from an outside view in daylight. Thanks.
I also agree about the digital zoom comments. I never used it.

You need to have a good light source, adjust the exposure, try night mode... etc etc.
Mainly a good light is all you need

here's a little hint. capture the picture in 1.3 mpx. go to file manager,pictures and view the picture there in horizontal mode. now press ur volume control button on the side of the phone and you can zoom into the picture 32x. hope that helps. cheers

ok heres a picture taken outside in AUTO mode.
one question; whats better NORMAL or FINE mode? i see very little difference in pictures except perhaps file size.

FINE is better as it gives lesser compression, thus maximizes quality -- that's why the size is bigger.

Damn, those pics are
UGLY...It should be noted though that the W550i primary feature apart from being a phone is as music device...the camera seems like it was an afterthought.
