Number 1 reason for blured photos is auto focus is not fixed on subject. Did you check this?
Another reason sharing the number 1 spot is shaking the camera when the picture is taken. Trembling hands (maybe due to excitement with the subject being shot...) can cause fuzzy photos that look like out of focus.

Dear  Lovers,
As you know lot of has been said about K850i Cyber-shot. This time due to strong marketing strategy by rival companies; K850i failed to stand properly in some forums. For example GSMArena where Nokia Fanboys did every attempt to dismiss it. Then there are review sites like Mobile Review
http://www.pcworld.in/review/article.jsp/artId=6750210/secId=7
Here is the Original review :-
Sony Ericsson’s first phone to feature a 5-megapixel camera with 16x digital zoom, the HSDPA-capable K850i is packed with features. Touchsensitive selection buttons, a completely redesigned media interface and a convenient spring-operated battery and SIM card cover are just some of what this beast has to offer.
The K850i is quite chunky and certainly a little larger and thicker than what we anticipated. Although the gloss black surface looks quite attractive, it’s a magnet for fingerprints — this is a disadvantage to the camera, as the lens is housed by clear plastic and doesn’t have a slide open cover like previous models.
For the first time ever to be seen on a mobile phone, the K850i houses the battery and SIM card beneath a fold out cover at the bottom — much the same as a regular digital camera.
The user interface is familiarly excellent, but the K850i’s controls are a mixed bag. The four-way navigational pad is thin and to select an item, you need to move your finger away from the pad and onto the touch-sensitive selection buttons at the bottom edge of the display. This does take a while to get used to and can be frustrating when first using the handset.
Although the touchsensitive selection buttons are responsive, they feel a little squashed as they are situated just above the answer and end call keys. Further, the keypad buttons are quite small and it will take a while to pick up the pace in terms of messaging. For calls, the K850i has a reasonable voice quality, though volume could have been much louder, especially when used in a noisy environment.
The much anticipated 5-megapixel Cyber-shot camera works well. It acts very similar to a stand-alone digital camera in the fact that it has its own on/off button and a slider that switches between camera, view and video recording modes. The BestPic function takes nine photos with one press of the shutter button, allowing you to select the best photo. Four pictures are taken as the camera button is pressed and four just after (using memory buffering). You can then check the results and pick the pictures you like the most, saving as many as you like. The quality of photos is certainly impressive, and both the auto focus and digital zoom work well.
We were able to take reasonable, if not outstanding photos in low-light conditions, and the range of settings and options is extremely impressive — headed by photo fix and image stabilizer functions. still no match for a standalone digital camera, but if you want something you can carry everywhere, the K850i certainly does the job and is without a doubt the best camera phone on the market — the quality of its images are better than Nokia’s N95.
The media interface of this handset has been completely redesigned and now cloudy resembles both the PlayStation 3 and the PlayStation Portable (PSP). Conveniently, an accelerometer auto-rotates between portrait or landscape modes. You can access and edit photos, music, videos and adjust settings, but there is still no standard 3.5mm headphone jack, though the relatively large display is crisp and clear for watching video. For photos, X-Pict Story, an automatic slideshow created based on four moods, adds music and transitional effects with a single button press.
The K850i also offers access to PlayNow, a music download service, and Track ID. PlayNow lets you listen to samples and then download tracks to your phone or PC, while TrackID allows you to record a few seconds of any song you wish and the title, album and artist name are sent back to you. It then allows you to download the full track if it is available.
SMS, MMS and e-mail messaging — all with T9 predictive text input, an FM radio, a voice recorder, Java games as well as Bluetooth with A2DP and USB connectivity are all included. 40MB of internal memory comes standard, but a 512MB M2 card is included and the K850i can also hold microSD cards. Battery life is very reasonable, rated at up to three and a half hours of talk time and up to 350 hours standby time on a 3G network.

sranjanm2002:
Nice review! I think we should leave the N95 alone and compare the K850 to the N82!
Here's are a few lines from the GSMArena review, enjoy:
"Furthermore, it is the best flash to be found on the market dethroning Sony Ericsson K850. It's not even a close call; the difference hardly needs any further comment."
"As for the cameraphone lovers, the decision is as simple as that - if you want the best camera on a phone and you're willing to pay for it, Nokia N82 is the way to go."
So an all around N Series is beating the crap out the "CYBERSHOT"! Sad times for SE. What's next in line, the "WALKMAN" brand?! LOLZ

See also the final results from the improvised GSMArena's "blind" poll:
1st place - Nokia N95-8GB, 217 votes
2nd place - Samsung G600, 60 votes
3th place - LG KU990 Viewty, 53 votes
4th place - Sony Ericsson K850, 4 votes

K850i really is a big disappointment.
N82 definitely is now the best camera & all in one phone on the market.

Actually, apart from the flash aspect, the g600 is superior to the K850i in nearly all respects, and before Plankgaten gets his CAPS out, i have both

i had N82 for 2 days..(yes i bought it and leave it back)...you know why ????
1.
the meny(UI) was very confusing...NOT logic
2.
the battery time & the joystick(naving pad) was realy bad
the camera was good, but not blow me away good..(its exactley the same camera like N95..did you know that ??? except for the xenon flash...
it took good daylight pics, but k850 produced better flash pics...sure, N82 have little stronger flash, BUT the pics became better on k850..
of course i want k850 to take better daylight pics...i realy hope that the new firmware will be much better optimized....(you cant get everything
G800 eehhh.....samsung should stay with their TV.s & screens.
they have no taste for design... design looks lightyears better i think.

@plankgatan
Of course we know why you gave it back it isn't an SE, bad battery in two days so just how many charges cycles did it get to optimise the battery then once, twice?
I was going to send you a shovel for Christmas so you can dig yourself a bigger hole but maybe a JCB would be more appropriate.
You hang on to 2-3 tests that praise the K850 to be the only good tests all the others that don't rate the K850 are rubbish and wrong and that really is just so funny.
