Bookmark topic
it's strange..
with my K800, when i use the flash for some pictures...
they come out like.. out of focus a little bit, and kind of blurry.
i don't know why it does that...
i really liked me K750 + MXE-60 also..
but i'm still trying to figure out how to make the picture stay clear when using the flash on the K800.

@Phantom
probably your hand shake while pressing down the shutter? that could be the reason why the pic was blurry

if it's really dark, the flash wouldn't light up the scene, and let the camera focus, which the built-in LED allows, as it lights up and stays on... that might cause the photo to be out of focus

Phantom, I have been having the same problem...thus, while impressed by tha abilities of the K800 (790a in my case

) flash unit, the pics taken using flash are VERY grainy, lack detail, have very sloppy unsharp noisy edges, and are of poor focus.
I think the cam sensor is not a very good one. blown up to native resolution, the lack of detail is horrendous!

And what exactly are you comparing the K800i's so grainy pictures to?? Your 160mp camera?

The further away you are from the subject at night the more thoes characteristics come into play. You might want to step closer to the subject so that the red led can focus on the surface properly. That can eliminate your focus problem.

I just visited my friend who had got a brand new K800. For a short while I could have a duell with it and my K750 & MXE-60 combo.
I have till now got my share of sample photos taken with flash or photolight in complete darkened room. I wanted instead demonstrate how the flash light would blend with the existing houshold lights in a livingroom - with the lights turned on - as usual.
I just went through all the scene modes of K800 in same order as listed in camera:
Auto, 1/250s, ISO 400, fired, 1536x2048
Twilight Landscape, 1/2s, ISO 125, not fired, 1500x2000
Twilight Portrait, 1/13s, ISO 400, fired, 1536x2048
Landscape, 1/8s, ISO 320, not fired, 1500x2000
Beach/Snow, 1/8s, ISO 320, not fired, 1500x2000
Sport, 1/100s, ISO 640, not fired, 1536x2048
Document, 1/250s, ISO 100, fired, 1536x2048
In the middle as reference the K750 & MXE-60 version:
K750 & MXE-60, 1/15s, ISO 200, fired, 1224x1632
In the middle as reference the K750 & MXE-60 version. Note the firing power of MXE-60 and the capturing of ambient light vs the first auto shot with K800.
Here the full image is scaled down to give show the effect of additional flash whenever the scene mode allowed it to fire.

Here 100% crops to show the noise level as well focusing. Some modes disable focusing.

I used to own the K750i and the MXE60 and now I own the K800i. I think the MXE60 is more powerful and the K750i does not do too much post processing in the phone (which leaves it less smudged than the K800i.)
That being said... it was a bit of hassle to carry it ard and mount it on when needed. Also sometimes the connection was not good. so it wouldn't fire off.
