W810i Camera problem - Esato archive

Posted by linsseason
Hi everyone,
one nice day at one rather not nice lecture I wanted to take some shots of tha slides with my phone...But I dissapointly found out that those were blurred and the text was unreadable. This didnt happen before, the text was sharp and clean. I got a closer look at my device and found out that there (obviously) was a prob with the focus... Shots from close range and macro shots are ok,all focused and all sharp but it somehow cant focus on distant objects... I am about to hand it over to profi hands-the service, but just of curiosity, has anyone of ya experienced such a problem and could figure it out alone? Cuz this whole repair thing is gonna take ages to comply. And yeah, the foun is still warranted.
Thanks for suggestions.

hi man! i have this problem on my k750i. autofocus was working perfect some time ago and after just started messin with me...if u would try to take a pic from not to far i.e. text or label it will start focus and after finish focus in bad state what hapens after u cand recognise anything in a picture. but ive figure out the solution how to void this! if u can make zoom in highest resolution u trying to make picture(im not sure about w810 just because before i had my k750 with older software in it it was posible to zoom from 2mbixel resolution, after ive don software upgrade it was disabled, and says "there is not posible to use zoom option in this size of picture" or somthn), so i was realy unhapy with this upgrade, but before an upgrade , when i was trying to take some kind a text picture or somethin when autofocus failed to focus image contrast, i was using +0.5 to +1.5 zoom option and autofocus was working without problems. i could say that had happened just because phone was dropped couple times on ground...after those drops ive experienced autofocus problems only...somthin inside lens of camero i would say
