#Millenniumcult

Dont feel dissapointed

All mobilecams are toys - nothing more - they are nothing but cheap webcams put into a phone. They cannot be compared to regular digicams. They all need "perfect" ligthing conditions just to deliver pictures that are halfdescent to look at. The purpose of cams in mobiles was to boost mms traffic - they were never ment to be a "real camera"

If you take pictures with your K700i under good lighting conditions - this means real daylight, preferably sunny - not indoor evening shots with artificial lighting, your pictures will be of the same quality as the rest youve seen here.

All mobilecams are terrible in poor lighting conditions - and even though the K700i cam is a step up compared to the T610 - its still only a low resolution mobile VGA cam, with a poor lense etc.

I cant say this clearly enough because it seems that there are so many people that buys their mobiles because of the camera, or expect way to much from them, and it allways makes me feel sad for them - if you want a good camera, get a real camera, if you want a good phone, get a good phone (you have) - dont ever expect the 2 to make up for eachother - cause they never will.

Mobile phone cams of today are toys, at its best they are fun toys, but they will never be as good as real digicams - yes, sure, in a year or 2 we will see mobile cams that can deliver pictures in the same quality as the cheapest digicams can today, but by then digicams will also have evolved and will still be way way better.

Yes the example you showed wasnt very good - but with the dim conditions I can see was present and the bright lamp on the wall right into the lense - every mobilecam would be just as bad.

What Im trying to say is - dont feel dissapointed - but preferably limit your picturemaking to sunny daytimes

Photos look great on my screen... I haven't got a bluetooth dongle yet, so I can't show you any pics - I'm going to order one from eXpansys so expect to see some soon. Well as soon as it stops pissing down and I can take some sunny pics.

Millenniumcult, you know that default setting is not high quality.. you must set it to "high"

Is that pic 640x480 high quality?

Picture taken in the dark using night mode and with the light switched on the k700i.
Not too bad for a phone

@Swedish_Chef & TheWizz_68

Yupp, image taken with 640x480 and the quality set to "high". Took another picture just now to compare with the one TheWizz_68 posted.



This one was also taken in complete darkness with the photo light on, quality set to high, resolution 640x480. I presume that the picture TheWizz_68 took was also shot under likning conditions?

Is it just my phone or...? Because it would be nice if the K700 actually was capable of doing pics like the one TheWizz_68 posted, if it was snaped under likening conditions as mine.

Hey guys ! stop moaning about the poor quality in low light conditions, you get that on all digital cameras when used in dark conditions, including my Sony Cybershot 4 megapixel camera.. its nothing to do with the K700 having a poor camera in it at all !

As you can see, using the flash improves it a lot.
