A couple of macros I took a few days ago. Default camera app and all auto.

Despite how bright it looks, this pic is only very slightly overexposed. That flower just likes to glow I guess.

Love the second picture! Can't wait to get mines again.

Beautiful!

One more, this one is a panorama:

I did edit this one in creative studio, I toned down the vibrance, upped the brightness, added some clarity. I was impressed with the interface on the panorama feature, so neat. For those who are wondering, this is on the Navajo Loop trail in Bryce Canyon, You can see the Formation "Thors Hammer" on the right side, what an incredible place!

Love the photos you've posted so far! You mentioned you think the iPhone5 takes better pictures than the 928 in daylight. Do you still have the iPhone? Would you be able to post a few comparison shots - different places, different conditions? Maybe do an iPhone5 vs 928 default camera vs 928 ProShot comparison? Thanks in advance! I'm anxious to see if the difference in quality/sharpness is very obvious.

Re: Pictures/Videos taken with your 928!

I have a friend who is a semi-pro photographer and we were comparing phones last night. We of course got to the camera portion. He's got a brand new iPhone5. I showed him my pool pics and he was AMAZED. He couldn't get over the fact how clear the pic was with a 4 sec exposure. First of all, he said his couldn't do a 4 sec exposure and if it could, he KNOWS it would be so blurry, that you would need a tripod to stabilize it. He was amazed how clear it was just from hand stabilization.
He was looking at the above pics with the flowers and the water drops and he just whistled at it.
Then he saw the above pic of Bryce Canyon and that just blew him away.
He just kept going on about how amzing the pics were for a CAMERA PHONE.

He was definitely, genuinely impressed to the point he was going to see if he could get it on his carrier. He's not on Verizon so I told him good luck. ;-)

Second photo is excellent!

Awesome shot of Bryce Canyon freddyfromutah! Very clear panorama. I'm with aaa6112 in that I'd love to see an iPhone 5 vs. Lumia 928 direct comparison on a couple of photos if you still have that phone around and can do it.

I'm going to continue to post test shots as I learn to use manual settings better, so please don't mind if some of my photos are rough/not very artistic guys. I hope that this will also help others learn their cameras better as well. Below are a couple of night shots I took while in a mall parking lot after hours:

This one is using ProShot, on the Auto setting, handheld (no stabilization). The camera chose:
- Exposure: 1/7 sec.
- ISO: 640
- Auto white balance
- Auto Focus


Using ProShot, on the C1 manual setting, handheld:
- Exposure: 1/8 sec.
- ISO: 200
- Auto white balance
- Focus: Manual at 78%

We can't see the metadata, can you provide what settings you used? Thanks!
BTW, better lunch than what I had today!

Re: Pictures/Videos taken with your 928!

Here are a few shots from mine. I'm not sure what I think about this camera....
Early morning with bright sky....lots of contrast and the light washes out....
Using proshot app... On "P"





Mid day today ISO 200, auto for the rest. Standard camera...





Proshot, "P" ISO 200, auto for the rest...





Maybe I had some junk on the lens for the first couple? The rest are not bad albeit a bit over saturated. I'll keep playing with it.

your camera is fine, you need to counter the backlighting.

The sky would likely be blown out (beyond white) with latest sensors on DSLRs, too - that's a huge dynamic range that you're expecting it to convey.

True but there are a lot more ways to compensate for it on a DSLR. On my iphone I was able to tap a spot on the screen and it would use that spot and adjust for the light....the sky wouldn't have been washed out but the trees would of been much darker. I'm not complaining, just comparing. It's different and in my opinion, I think the iphone was a little better in some lighting situations. If this sensor is the low light "king" then it stands to reason that this camera will struggle a little in certain lighting. I do like being able to manually control some of the camera settings. Big plus in my book. I'm happy with the other photo's as well as video.

One last thing, is the location of the camera seems to be susceptible to getting stuff on it. As mentioned above, it will be a good idea to carry a cloth around to clean it often.

get the ProShot app it allows you to adjust the exposure compensation and shows blown out areas, and then adjusts that as you adjust the exposure compensation
