Re: Any examples of the pictures or video the N900 takes?

Wow! given this is just a point and click camera, these images are quite nice.
I think getting a flikr account will be the first thing I do when my n900 arrives, but the waiting!

Hey all, we created a Flickr group for these photos.

I'm also a hobbyist photographer. I'm pretty happy with my pre-production (please remember that when considering the images) quality I'm getting with the N900 device. It's far better than any other mobile phone/device camera I have personally used. (Although yes, there probably certainly are better quality smartphones with 8mpix cameras out there already.)

I put my images at least without post-processing, you could easily refine them up a bit more if you would like. Yes, N900 is only 5 megapixels, but as has been stated to death, that isn't really the defining factor. Yes, you can also take really bad looking photos if you don't know what you're doing.

Anyway, for instance to be able to get rather nice looking depth of field shots with my mobile computer camera is seriously a cool thing.

forget the megapixels!

heres something taken with 4mpix (Canon eos 1D)

so now I'm waiting double quality photos with 8mpix mobile phone cameras.... or admitting the fact that the megapixels are only one variable that comes normally after optical quality and noise level when prioritized correctly.

Amazing pics!

And a fine example that there's far more to an images quality than mega-pixels.

Screw Flickr, deadmalc, and get an Ovi account. They have Ovi Share, just like Flickr, but better, and integrated in the phone with Ovi Share in the menus. Or use Pixelpipe and hit all your social networks and photography storage sites in one upload.

Just for the record, the first link above:

was shot by me with a Canon EOS ID Mark III which is a 10.1 Megapixel camera, not 4 megapixels. The original 1D was a 4.4 megapixel camera.

There is no *after*. A camera is a system in which the sensor and the optics are both fundamental elements, and these elements should be well matched/balanced.

And one tiny note about noise. Noise is a sensor parameter, and it's loosely tied to pixel size. Generally you want as little of it as possible, but remember - you can trade some resolution for less noise, but you cannot trade lack of noise for more resolution.

That is the definition of EPIC WIN.

I had used Shozu before (Shozu allows uploads to multiple sites) and it was much faster. Sadly Shozu is now a paid application on OVI Store.

But seriously whats wrong with Flickr ? OVI Share while it may be good, has not much of followers and Flickr is where most of say my friends are also on - hence its good for sharing with people I know.

jandmdickerson,
maybe you don't know how to use the N95's camera well. You are the first person to say the N95 took worse photos than the iPhone.

I suggest you look at Dr. Tran's Flickr page to see the great things he does with Nokia cams. And then ask yourself what the heck you've done wrong...

I have to agree, the N95, is still a decent camera, and the VIDEO recording is still good, it was amazing once.
my father in law takes my N95 videos and turn them into DVD films, nobody have complained on the actual video quality when showing on a big screen more the skills of the photographer ( me).

I am finally retiring my fist Gen N95, and hope that the N900 will be as good as the N95, especially video recording. No phone have until now been a worthy replacement for the ground breaking N95 "Do it All Phone" IMO.
