Pictures + Videos Taken With My Lumia 830

So the 10MP cam kills it for me. I absolutely love the shots and the phone itself.
But are there any pics/samples of the front facing cam? I mean.....nearly 1 megapixel.... I just want to be sure :-)

anyone experience problems with uploading pictures taken with Nokia Camera Beta? Only ProShot and 6tag pictures upload for me. I see no problem with the files (permissions and ownership)..
 
I upload the complete picture so anybody can see it at full size.

strange, I have no idea what's causing it. The upload goes through but ends with a red exclamation mark and an I/O error. Only 6tag or otherwise downscaled photos upload for me..
 
My 830 seems to have two personalities. Outdoor shots look quite good. Definitely a notch below the top tier phone cameras, but very nice. On the other hand, indoor photos of people are just not good. It struggles to get the correct white balance and there is very little detail. Even without zooming in, and just on the phone's 5" screen you can tell these are not good photos. I like the form factor and lots of other things about this phone, but the lack of camera performance in this one area could be a total deal-breaker for me.
 
Ok. I wanted to test, not so much WP Apps, but the camera itself and pictures themes. And so I took some bracketed photos (5 photos max + and - 3ev)with Nokia Classic beta. I then took the time to mix them HDR on my desktop with the infamous photomatrix. The pic's are just outside of my house and might not be the most interesting, but I hope they show what the 830 is able to do.

So... I discovered my local town has a "Towing and Recovery Resume."
I thought this would be the perfect place to test the limits of Lumia 830 and HDR with Lumia Classic beta (5 photo brackets and mixed in photomatix).
