No_LiMiT,
Hmm. I have to ask to be sure: Do you know that shutter button has two steps? First you press it gently half way and screen shows with green rectangle if it´s focused, red if not, and then gently squeeze it down while keeping hands as steady as possible. Preferably try to find some way to lock position e.g. use doors frame to steady it etc..

Try to fool around with settings. Take same picture many times with different settings and see how it affects the quality of image.

And try to avoid flash. It really ruins images. This is mainly outdoor camera (good lightning) as most of pocket cameras.

I have tried many different settings, and I can confirm no flash with good light which can help N900 produce a better picture......

But I can also confirm my previous 5800 and N95 can do the same tasks much much more better than N900......

Hope Nokia will provide firmware upgrade to improve the camera quality for all the way to take picture.....

cmsjkung,

Hmm when browsing flickr and looking n95 and n900 pics I´m pretty much sure that n900 pictures are much sharper and color is better. IMO overall. But how n900 camera behaves and how settings are controlled could be probably better but still quality seems to be very subjective.

I'm really happy with the camera in the n900 (and I'm still just using auto setting)

I use it to take pictures of all sorts of stuff:

Nature:

Statues:

and ofc. my cock:

Reading about some posters problems with blue hue when using flash I just took theese two:

First one is taken using the 5mp setting and everything on auto

Second one is taken using same settings but just a little further away... and there you can see a bit of blue up in the right corner

Not sure exactly what is doing it but I don't see it as a huge problem as I rarely use the flash for other than party pictures where the quality really doesn't matter much ;)

Not that bad in the right conditions.

Wow, those are some nice pictures, why aren't my pretty like that :(

Anyhow, just went through facebook and found some old ones, now watch this, same night and I don't remember what exactly I changed, doubt it was just flash:

And yes, I know fb reduces picture size and quality, but this doesn't look that bad so it might all have something to do with lightening and size :p

Anyone got suggestion/guide how to configure and/or make pics look better afterwards?

Would be interesting to know what the difference between the first tow photos was.
Do you still have the original pictures with the EXIF data, that might provide some clues?

Is it the same camera as that on an X6?
