For this pics, try manually setting focus to infinity (EV 0 Zoom 1.1). You should use focus infinity for any pic where the subject is 4 or more meters away from you. You can also change metering to spot off. Focus of picture #2 and #3 seems to be near which I don`t think was what you intended...

i tried using neat image to clean up the night shots. it works really well. i haven't tried with setting sharpness to 0 though.

as for the sun shots you posted, try changing wb to cloudy and also playing with magenta wb ... you get some really cool effects. it can make the sun and the whole scene look warmer. though, i realize you just posted those shots to show shutter speed ...

wb all auto


cloudy wb setting in the menu


auto wb, increase in magenta wb

My idea was to show shutter speed effect, but I really liked the magenta tunned picture, very cool effect!
As for disabling sharpness, check my second post here why it's important, I posted a comparisson when I first discovered this method:

@lpachuong
tested the new 9.2, but I found the pictures blurred and less noisy than 9.1, as if some filtering was being applied even in normal mode...

it seems to be a good idea
i'll check it later
thanks

@lpachuong
i have checked your A4A 9.1 and in my opinion it takes blury photos
the older versions eg. 8.1 doesn't takes so blury photos
before i forget my phone is k750i@w800i R1BC002 cid 49
anyway thanks for a driver, good job

Thank you all for that information. Now could you please change CMD(56,0e) back to CMD(56,06) and tell me whether noise is here or not. I dont know why the sharpness at 0e is very good on my phone. I will post some pictures to prove this

i can't find CMD(56,0e) in 9.1 but i found it in 9.2
tomorrow i'll test your driver with changed sharpness settings, and also test standart 9.2 and tell you results
maybe i'll took some photos with raiderski 6.6 to compare it with photos from yours driver

Does someone know how to get rid of shaky hands? =)

Natural answer would be: "get a tripod" The problem is to find a tripod that can be used with K750/W800. I have seen one on ebay:
http://cgi.ebay.com/SonyErics[....]eNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
But it only sells as a add-on for people that buy the K800 telescope... I have asked the seller if there was a way I could buy just the tripod but no reply

Hi !! Thanks for the advice !! I will do that next time. I have just started to learn how to use all EV and Zoom values but sometimes when I use EV +0.7 Zoom 1.1 for pictures in low light conditions (eg. inside a pub at night time) I have to be very steady with my hands as it takes up a very long time to process the picture and save it (sometimes 3 to 4 seconds in night mode), if I slightly shake my finger for a quarter of a second the picture comes out blurry.

Sorry, just to make a correction. I was talking about EV +07 Zoom 1.2 (instead of 1.1). 1.2 is when it takes up a long time to store the picture and you should avoid shaky hands.

To take people pics at low light condition, it's better to use the external flash accessory MXE-60. I posted a comparisson here:
http://www.esato.com/board/viewtopic.php?topic=135737&start=7140
The problem is that real people keep moving, so even if you manage to don't shake your hands, people will move and blur the photo. MXE-60 kills the need of stillness, and coupled with post-processing you can make near digital camera quality at night (again, check the samples in the link)

@all
I made a new wallet reference guide. The idea of this guide is to keep it in the wallet, so you don't risk forgetting the guide and missing it when you needed most. This guide contains Ridersky default options plus the "Ultimate Exposure Computer" shutter recommendations adapted to Ridersky drivers. You can get it here:

And here's how it looks like in your wallet!

I high recommend reading the "Ultimate Exposure Computer" here:
