I am a camera illiterate - admittedly I do know how to operate a camera the moment I get it in my hands, while my classmates need to refer to a manual, but the photography-fu eludes me. The N900 however, is certainly comparable as a camera to quite a few P&S cameras. To say that it sucks implies something not very nice about your ability. Admittedly the Canon G7 wins the N900 by miles, especially in the macro department (no P&S can touch 1cm macros!) it does cost more than my N900.

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.
btw. I had fun looking for them

If so then real camera manufactures are doing something terribly wrong and Nokia should probably leave cellphone business and kick fuji, olympus, nikon and all the others ***.

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.
If we haven't a decent subject, it's clear that the picture is bad.
However, is it impossible to shot a very very good picture in automatic mode. A portrait with the appropriate setting will be more attractive than one with deafault setting. In some case is necessary to modify some options like white balance, exposure or ISO. For these reason i have just promoted a general redesigned of Camera's GUI , that is more dispersive and not designed for quickly access.
Don't forget that the image resolution is more important when we shot a photo. wide mode is good for Panorama and Action scene. 5 is ideal for Macro and Portrait (<1m) photo!
I'm making a guide in italian language. if someone help me to translete it, i post here.
