Well, I have heard some of you people complaining of the P800 camera. Yes, it could be better, but here is one pic of my brother. Don't look at him, look at the quality and you will find it very good. I do.

Can't wait to get the new software that will improve the picture quality.

Any comments?

Wow, your camera is good. The quality of mine is pretty bad. Let me show you an example. Using 640x480 and High Picture Quality. Did you use a megapixel digital camera? It looks as though.

So are you saying that the picture quailty varies from some p800's to other p800's, just like the t68i kepypad illumination problem people were experiencing.

I think both of them looks good.
The first one, is taken with better light, looks like the room has some huge windows letting plenty o daylight in the room.
The second one is taken indoors with lights on.

The pics gets better when changing some settings depending on the situations.

I've gotten fantastic image quality, so long as I leave the settings at 640x480, High quality and automatic lighting.

I wish I could get a quality that's half as good as that. Maybe I'm using it with wrong lighting or something, but my pictures come out much worse than those...

I did notice that the pictures are interlaced. If I use photoshop to deinterlace them, they improve (there's a slight combing effect if you notice, on the first image by the window).

Often the quality on the pictures will differ if you dont hold your p800 totally still when you take the picture. The button to take the picture is not too easy to press, so it can be a slight move on the phone the instance you take the image, which causes more blur in the picture.

Remember, you can use the stylus to take the picture to!!
I might be easier to just tap the screen as pushing the cam button!

I still prefer the built-in camera that came with Nokia 7650. At least you don't have to adjust much settings like the P800 which has pros and cons but the Nokia 7650 has pre-set pofiles. And the night-shots are good. But you can't have all good things in one right?

OK, I've done some experiments, and yes the image taken with the camera seems to be interlaced somehow.

I believe The best thing to do with a photo taken on the p800 camera is this:

open the image in photoshop
duplicate the layer.
One one layer, use filter/video/deinterlace (even fields)
on the other, do same but with odd fields.
Set top layer to opacity 50%
Flatten image.

I highly recommend setting these steps as an "action" to do this as a batch process. (go to the "action" tab on layers pallete, press record at bottom).

I would advise doing this before any other filtering/colour corrections.

Resave the image as JPEG with quality of 64 to match filesize of high-quality setting on p800 (name the image at the same time)
