and for the record i took a whole tutoring class from a actualy photographer who knows all the ins and outs of the settigns and what they mena. not to mention countless hrs of google and wikipedia and dictionaries just to make sure this isnt a operator error thing and it is not. the camera simply does not perform worth a crap unless you are outside in bright daylight and your target is still for the most part.

I get fantastic pictures from my device, even from an aircraft in low lighting outside. I often take macro pictures and they are stunning. Up against a digital camera, some pictures look so much better.

Admittedly, yes there are some features missing from the camera software (will be added in PR1.2 it seems), and it isn't great for taking pictures in complete darkness, but no camera is without a massive flash on it.

As for the iphone, the camera is crap, always has been and always will be, as are the HTC phones, and toshiba tg01. Its not much cop unless you've got blinding day light, thats why the iphone is so thin and featureless in that respect. It uses a cheap sensor so that apple could maintain their fashion accessory.
believe it or not i know all about the settings for the camera on the n900. Also, the n900 takes wonderful pictures in pitch darkness. ie: my guest room with the curtains pulled shut and all the lights upstairs off @ zero daylight 9:00pm est usa phila. metro area.

but almost every other indoor condition will result in poor quality image

Here's a gallery of N900 pics taken by Tim Samoff. He's a good photographer with regular cameras and it shows in his N900 pics. http://www.flickr.com/photos/timsamo...7622407857408/

Show me examples of iPhone pics that come close to any of those then you may have a case. If your camera is not working as you think it should, send it away to be repaired. The N900 is still under warranty.
thanks for posting the pics.

I looked through a good portion of them. i let the slide show run for about a minute and a half i guess. anyway. what i learned is that almost every single picture on there were taking in amzing light conditions. IE: every single one (almost) was taking outsight during a bright sunny day. i did notice a few that could have been indoors liek the one of the girl lying on a couch or something. how did it come out? grainey, crapy, fuzzy, horrible. another one of a child form a photo album or something. not as bad as the one of the lady but hazy still. the rest of the ones i saw were amazing outside shots.


So what was your point? i totally agree it takes great pics in daylight. however... SO WHAT! go inside and try and take a pic? go to a even thats not outside liek a wedding reception, or assymbly at a school. go anywhere other than the bright of day and see what you get.

The same, terrible pictures you get off every cell phone camera?

Tiny sensors have horrible low light sensitivity, you'll never get a good picture off a device like this without good lighting. If you want to take good low light pictures, you need to get something with a much bigger sensor.

my n95 was a rockstar @ taking pics. granted dim light like from a night club or a bar didnt come out too pretty but the average normal indoor light was always good enough to get great quality. cant say the same for the n900

Do you have any samples or comparison shots?

if you want to show photos u took with the n9000 you better edit the contrast and brightness and hopefully that will be less embarrasing when people look at your camera pics

you can tweak and tweak all week till you cant speak and your n900 photos will stil be weak!!!!
this camera is trash and nokia wont lift a finger to change it cause it would be too expensive to come up with some kinda hardware change for every one who brought one
Haha, I had to laugh hard, since you have no idea what you're talking about. If you owned the N900 and had some basic skills, you would know the N900 is capable of making amazing photos.

The Nokia n82 takes excellent pictures in any light and that has 5 mp .
