8-(( ... I was just staring on the figures printed on them late late in the night. But now I did it - I changed the cam from CID49 back to CID36 version:

See the results: better overall quality, see details far away, full 4x zoom in fine quality. Sony-Ericsson, what have you done to the CID49 cam module... SHAME on you!!!

all pictures done with Sarmadīs 5.7 driver (sharpness 4)

CID49


CID36


auto


4x zoom


Now I will test if colour-correction for CID49 has to be removed...

The digital zoom is firmware dependent, it could just be that there is a bit of variation in the quality control of the units.



No its not, its down to the hardware.

Flash a CID 49 phone thats been nobbled by SE with a firmware that has zoom & then try & use it, the zoom wont work correctly & you cant even save pictures with any zoom effect.

But do a straight swop from a CID 49 camera on a nobbled K750I to a CID 36 camera & using the same software & drivers that only had 1 x zoom on largest picture setting with CID 49 camera & you get a perfect 4 x zoom working with the CID 36 camera.

Everyone is correct on the cam modules! SE pulled a fast one at K800 launch, so that K750 wouldn't rob K800's sales! Hence cheaper module/non-zoom firmware.......

.....and some still think SE aren't all about the money these days.....thankfully, we know better, and can counteract their sneaky shenanigans.....

Yes I have changed my cid49 cam to cid36 (zoom works) but in quality I don't see difference (useing sarmad 5.7 for k750 CID36 driver). I have k750i flashed to w800. Maybe change firmware? Any ideas? Thank you
