Does sound come out of the headphone jack, or is that just ornamental too?

OK, I'm done. But seriously. Seriously!

The main purpose of the camera is to be used as a "webcam" for internet calling and not as a digital camera. If you would like to capture pristine images a good idea would be to spend $150 on a 5.0 megapixel camera.

However, since the N800 is based on a Linux OS it has the potential for the development community to join forces and create a software that will use the camera to capture rudimentary images or videos.

The thread was initiated to find out whether this existed already, but it seems like we are still in the dark on this one.

Compiled camera test app. This will take a snapshot from the camera and store it in your images directory. If anyone likes I may be convinced to expand this with more features ;)

Thanks konfoo. Addt'l features would be great.

Re: Taking pictures with N800
 
I have an interesting app on my Sony Ericsson P910, called PhotoAcute. What the app does, is basically use the P910's VGA camera (like the one on the N800) and quickly take 4 consecutive pictures. It then stitches those pictures together into one higher-resolution one (the maximum resolution is 1280x960).

You need a fairly steady hand and you obviously don't want to use it for action shots, but I've got some decent results with the P910's crummy phonecam.

Anyone is feeling tempted?

Interesting. 4 quick snapshots would definitely be easy to implement. The process that PhotoAcute uses is probably patented though (I notice they allow licensing of the algorithms). I would bet the license is not free either :/

Sorry for being a nub, but how do I install this? I unzipped it and saved the file onto the n800's MMC card, but app manager can't seem to find it.

<SNORTY>Can you add face detection like the one on Fuji, noise reduction, Anti-Shake, Night mode, Panorama mode, auto-stitching? Thanks.</SNORTY>
