Hi,

I'm using a k800i, I wonder if one of the camdriver modders (or other photographers) might be able to answer my question:

The pictures when seen fullsize often show a sort of 'oil painting' effect, which I assume is down to postprocessing. Is there a combination of modes which minimizes this effect, for example 3mp fine or normal, 2mp fine or normal etc, or does this effect appear with all modes? Would a different driver help? I use Withan v3 at the moment.

All the best,

Martin.

There's that effect on all phones (SE) and it is caused by the image sharpening feature. It can be disabled in the driver but I never dared try it.

Thanks for that StevenC.. Am I right in thinking then that reducing the sharpness will improve the image quality? I particularly see this effect where land meets sky for example.
