@Mizzle - I know that phones mess up the pics with their limitations, that's why I wrote: ''Waiting for SE to release any CCD phone'' in my signature. I'm a big fan of all in one concept (mobile phone+digital camera+mp3 player+internet device). I was amazed by the i-mobile 902 because it featured a real SONY CCD sensor which provided incredible quality shots. I sold it because it was horrible as a phone.

I mainly used phones as a replacement for digital camera since K750i, before that I had a Canon PowerShot A40 2 MP P&S Digital Camera which broke after 5 years. I still have SONY DSC-P41 4 MP P&S Digital Camera which I use occasionally. I might go down that road and buy a DSLR, if I don't find a phone that will be able to replace a dedicated digital camera.

About T650i, I think that SE sometimes puts different quality camera modules in the same line of phones. One of my friends has a mobile phone shop, and I've tested 6 K770i, only two had normal camera, other 4 were horrible, and they all had the same firmware. Myabe that's the case with my T650i

I think the camera lens may not be that clean... If it has fingerprints, etc. try to check if that isn't the case... The other reason can be that these images are shot in shade/indoors which resulted in not so good contrast and white balance... Try taking such pics with white balance set to daylight... The colors will be much better...

The camera's on both our 08W24 T650's (one black and one pink/gold) are both fine although at one point i thought the pink ones camera was playing up as the pictures seemed a little cloudy and out of focus. Checked the lens and found it had a greasy film on it. Used some alcohol wipes on it and everything was fine again.

No, I really don't, please explain to me.



Its color temperature, measured in Kelvins. I dont know if you're being sarcastic or not but since you questioned my photography skills i think i must do the same since you dont know what color temperature is.

I`ve put number1`s final driver, and it seems that colors look better now, but something went wrong with fine details. See for yourself. I only took two photos during the break I had today at my lectures.

btw. All these girls you see on my photos study English with me at our university, and are my friends and colleges.

Look pretty good qualitywise, maybe a bit soft. Is the lens smudged/dirty at all, you'd be surprised how much that can affect quality! Or the ISO's set too high, you weren't using night mode were you?

I notice something when I try to take some picture with my phone...its not a T650 but see whether it helps...once you trigger the camera to be activated....wait for a while. My phone kinda takes time to get the proper white balance set as I put it auto...if I tilt the phone or move it...the color or brightness from the view finder also act differently (same for the picture I took)

not following up whether all this being the solution but just try again and again....it took me a few times to get myself used to using my P1 as my camera as I thought it can easily be a trigger happy camera which is not.

Salih, number1's camdriver is one of the best you can get out there but looking at your first pic (2girls) it seems like you moved the cam a bit cause it was kinda blurred (shaky), the document one seems very fine. try to take another pic with firm hands (and please this time take "her" pictures alone )

Salih, I don't really see anything wrong with your shots. My T650i takes pretty much similar pictures.

I have noticed that the camera is rather sensitive in terms of picking automatic white balance. Sometimes it gets it right, and other times it makes the picture too "cold". To combat this, just set it to manual sunny profile, and leave it there. I've found it helps quite a bit for outdoor shots.

Other than that, just make sure the lens is clean. I always give it a wipe with my shirt before I start taking pictures.
