640 DS, Pictures always dark

[Rahul Guliyani 92]

My lumia 640DS captures some really darkned/dull images. I've tried hard reset, moving to Win10 and other camera apps but the pictures are still dull
I have to change the iso manually to 200 for better and colourful images
Anyone facing this problem?

Sounds like it may be hardware then... Are you still in warranty?

Yes I'm
Its been 10 months since i purchased.
I have seen similar issues from many other 640 n 640xl users.
Although photo editors and auto enhance corrects it to some extent

Are we talking always dark?

Or just in low light?

Not very low light
Its good outdoors when its bright outside
See the image is just perfect before i click
Videos shot are of good quality too
Its when you click and the app runs some stupid algorithm making the image appear darkened.

Rich Capture and/or Flash may be your friend. Then you can edit light properties somewhat.

ISO 100 is helpful, but decreases shutter speed and may make for blurry pics since 640 doesn't have OIS.

Also, you could try some alternate camera Apps...
