the N82 isnt that ugly is it? personally, i put functionallity ahead of looks. just ask my ugly girlfriend. the good thing about the n82 is that it looks the way it does in the product shots. it dosent have an fingerprints on it yet.
but why is it that whenever someone gets awful pictures with a k850, its because theyre using it wrong? the net is full of 5mp phone review/comparisons and the k850 almost always comes out last. but people insist its the photographer. I know how to take photos, and i know to keep my fingers well away from the front of the k850. the flashburn thing is a well reported bug in the k850. if you insist your k850 dosent get flashburn, please take a photo of your arm with auto settings, and post it at full size with its exif settings so everyone can see.
im kinda sad to see SE go. the Nokia interface is really foreign to me. but everything works and i can plug it into the telle to look at my photos, and that alone is worth the switch. to me personally

Dupet,
The photo that you have pubslihed shows that the shot is overexposed.
I also faced a similar problem and hope SE addresses this in their next firmware update. It is nothing to do with the phone or the camera. This only happens when the distance between the subject and the camera is 2-3 feet. More than that it is ok.
Compared to N95 this phone takes incredible pictures.. no doubt. But you have to agree to the fact that all devices have plus and minus and this phone is no exception. None of the Nokia cameras give so clear & crisp pictures as SE of a same level does.
K800 is perfect today after 10-12 firmware update. So wait for another couple of firmware updates and I believe you will see the real camera coming out.
cheers

Here you go. Auto Settings with flash. White background. EXIF info is there also.

@Dupet
Check the size of the hand in the first photo and compare it to the one on the second. You'll notice that the background is larger on the first photo, than the second, so the K850 has adjusted the flash to the background (hence the extremely bright hand) and not the hand.

Auto everything and i think my hand is even closer to the flash then yours:
Okay a bit blurred but anyway you can see the effect from the flash.
The second one with ISO 100.

dude, you have really scary looking hands!
but its good to see not everyone has the same problems i had with the k850.
personally, i just knew it was time to let it go. it wasnt just the camera; it was a lot of little things. i kept pressing the touch buttons by accident and it was impossible to keep clean. i had to keep wiping the lens on my clothes before taking photos, and i think that resulted in dust underneeth the glass.
i sure do miss the SE interface though

Well,
Here is an example of what I mean by 'Repainting REDS, in a horrid PINK colour' - Its such a horrid FW fault - I hope Sony Ericsson FIX this and fast - my T650i does better than the K850i!!!!
(Both images were taken in Macro Mode)
They are both at Full Size, with no editing - its a sad fact that the K850i cannot render reds (a mainstay in the photographic colour spectrum).
You can tell which one is the K850i, and which one is the T650i...

try pointing the k850 to something red when there's low light.
You've never seen so much noise in your life :>

Well the lensproblem i solved last night i simply took the glass away. But if you don't want to do that you just buy the krusell classic case and you will at least get rid of the smudge problem. The touch buttons is more of an personal issue i think. I have no problems with them at all, so that differs.
