I was a bit disappointed by the little tripod I bought, but what can you expect for less than $5 from China delivered? Every time I either tapped the screen or depressed the camera button, it bounced like a 9 year old on a trampoline. All of the long exposure (night shot) pictures I took with it came out more blurry than when I hand held it. All was not lost, however. The part that holds the camera screws onto my big boy tripod, so I got some decent shots with that. There is still some bounce, but not nearly as much. I'm going to have to work on that some more. Here as some night shots I took tonight with it. All were taken in ProShot mostly on automatic, but with manual focus. A few were cropped in Gimp.I love this little camera phone.


A copper Frog
f 2.4, ISO 1250, 1/8s, cropped and contrast enhanced in Gimp, because a bright light to the left and behind the frog washed out the picture.

City Hall
f 2.4, ISO 640, 1/20s, original shot was not level, so I leveled it in Gimp and cropped.

exiva - ProCam and ProShot will give you control over the exposure (both ISO, shuuter, and a +- bump up), so in that sense it can correct most problems caused by the use of Auto exposure. I don't recall the default app giving me washed out photos. You may want to check your ISO, exposure and WB settings in the Camera app to make sure its not set on too high a value. Do you have an example we can look at to maybe help you better?

2 of our dawgs "Penny" then "Mia with shedding hair and chewed nails."
(downsized because I wasn't sure if huge pics would be good in the forum view)

The camera on the 521 sure takes a beating in the phone reviews.
All the pics in this thread kind of disprove the bad press when it comes down to creativity and a little patience.

Getting to know Pro Shot.
Trying to practice using the 521 with different apps.
Liking this phone more and more each day.
We're heading for the Pacific coast in the coming week.
Maybe I can really show some stuff then :grin:

Hoping to see some more stuff from other folks!

I got saddled with graffiti patrol this week for community services.
The 521 comes in handy for large sharp evidence pics.

Now if street patrol can just catch the spray can bandit.
