The lower the number the better.
The size of a camera sensor will have a big impact on the quality of your pictures. The lens gathers light and directs it towards the sensor, and the sensor records the light to create the image. Large sensor produces better images
All things being equal, a larger sensor will receive more light than a smaller one, and produce better images. This is especially important in low light photography.
When light levels are low, a smaller sensor will generate a higher amount of noise, which will decrease the quality of the images. This is why the best low-light setups include a camera with a large sensor (usually a

Hang and Dead Issue
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
If ever your N8 failed to boot up (mean pressing the power button but no response), do as follow:
1. Verify is it a SW hang by long press the power button >7.5 seconds to force shutdown the N8. This is for SW hang scenario 2. Plug in the charger and wait for AT LEAST 15 minutes, then try to boot up. This is for depleted battery scenario 3. If you are SURE the battery not depleted and got the DEAD N8, send to NCC for checking as it might be defective hardware related issues.
From experience, the N8 can't be Hard Reset once it's failed to boot up normally or so call "DEAD N8".

How to take great pictures for beginners
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
As a beginner, we know how bad we take pictures. Here are the tips to get things right.
1. Learn the curve, functions of the camera inside the N8, get to understand the scene mode, flash mode, exposure, white balance, light sensitivity, contrast. 2. Then, take alot of pictures with different light sensitivity, exposure or other settings. Compare the pictures. This is basically trial and error. 3. Next, take alot of pictures with different angle, positions and distance and scenery. Try with different setting as well. Compare the pictures, and choose the best among the best 4. Finally, share the best pictures with your friends.
It will take some time to learn, even professional DSLR user choose the best pictures from alot shot that have taken. Some video to share

Nokia N8 Screen Test (Dark Blend and Dark "Stains" during AMOLED near turn OFF mode)
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
All, attached here the Screen Test color cards which use to check the Nokia N8 AMOLED screen quality.
1. Extract the .zip and it contain 16 color cards with below setting, all are in 360x640 resolution:
01. ST BLACK-00.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 000000. 02. ST BLACK-01.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 010101. 03. ST BLACK-02.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 020202. 04. ST BLACK-03.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 030303. 05. ST BLACK-04.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 040404. 06. ST BLACK-05.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 050505. 07. ST BLACK-06.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 060606. 08. ST BLACK-07.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 070707. 09. ST BLACK-08.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 080808. 10. ST BLACK-09.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 090909. 11. ST BLACK-10.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0A0A0A. 12. ST BLACK-11.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0B0B0B. 13. ST BLACK-12.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0C0C0C. 14. ST BLACK-13.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0D0D0D. 15. ST BLACK-14.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0E0E0E. 16. ST BLACK-15.bmp are a pure black card where the RGB setting are 0F0F0F.
2. Open these files with the default photo viewer.
3. Go into an enclose place (total darkness needed) wait for a while (to let our eyes get use to the darkness) and view into the phone screen.
4. From what I've observed the phone AMOLED will start to turn off start at "ST BLACK-04.bmp", "ST BLACK-03.bmp", "ST BLACK-02.bmp", "ST BLACK-01.bmp",
"ST BLACK-00.bmp".
5. The screen dark "stains" will sufface as well during these few color cards.
6. Start from "ST BLACK-05.bmp" onward the dark "stains" will be not so visible.
7. All these have to be done in total darkness room as these defective "stains" are not visible at all when the surrounding are bright.
After you seen these result DO NOT simply bash N8 straight away as we're not sure why/how the AMOLED display technology work and how it perform on other
devices. Anyone can use these color cards to verify on others AMOLED display devices as well...

When asked whether Google and Nokia have discussed matters with Android operating system, Robin replied: "I think Nokia have a new leadership, they are weighing their options, I strongly recommend Android operating system, I hope they can use It. " However, Nokia could not easily use Google's Android operating system, because of Nokia's executive vice president Anssi Vanjoki said long ago, sales of mobile handset manufacturers with its own operating system if it will hurt their brand. The Nokia spokesman on Wednesday declined to comment on this issue. However, analysts believe that Nokia uses Android operating system is of great significance. Although Nokia's Symbian operating system is still the world's first use of the mobile platform, but its importance is declining. In fact, Nokia has started collaboration with Intel to develop a new open source mobile operating system platform Meego. According to market research firm Gartner's data, Nokia is the undisputed world's leading mobile handset manufacturers, which in the global handset market share of 34% in the global smartphone market share is 33%. However, in the U.S. market, it lags far behind other smart phone operating systems and equipment. For this reason, Gartner Inc. analyst Ken Dulaney believes that Nokia executives "may change their business plan, one in the U.S. market using Android operating system." While other analysts have also endorsed this idea, they think of Nokia new leadership may be more willing to adopt the Android operating system.

This is the short term the most likely scenario. "

The way nokia works like China now. they dont want GOOGLE. China got its own source and Nokia did the same too. they want their own things ^^.
which in the global handset market share of 34% in the global smartphone market share is 33%.
This sentences means?
Nokia own 33% of 34% total?
means 33% is nokia and 1% for all those noob iphone etc?
34% = handset 33% = smartphone

This one I have to do myself. Need to find out which button does what, how to control aperture, shutter speed, ISO, white balance etc. Which means I need to read the manual.
Once I get the basic operations done, then I surely will invite you to go jalan jalan then can try out 60D vs 550D.
White balance is in the menu button. U just need read the quick guide. ISO mine is on top 550D i not so sure. If u use AV it will be auto if u use TV it will be auto. Then ligthting will be manual for u to control.
No worries take your time. Look forward to test it out with u. Then on right top got this AF metering if i spell right u can choose where for the camera to focus. Its kinda like touch focus but on DSLR u choose manual

1. Travel charger - ensure you really push the charging connections to the phone and ciggie lighter area are all the way in. 2. I thought all casing will cover the back of the N8? Or do you mean the screen area? 3. If I remember correctly, it's under Settings > Connectivity. Or somewhere there. Set to GSM only, I think.

very unlikely. None of the distributor in Malaysia practise 1 to 1 exchange. Worst case scenario, they will just change the motherboard.

i think his talkin abd 3G data connection. If i not mistaken u cant disable... what i do is remove the Internet setting for 3G data.
Yea same. keep auto connect no matter what setting i put. Sifu any recommendation or hear where the best place to take christmas photos?
Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Causeway Bay in Hong Kong and not forgetting Orchard Road, Sentosa Island in Singapore.
But seriously, tonight I am thinking of just sitting at home and research the functions on the 550D. Then if not too tired will go out and shoot photo of revellers on the street.
hehe sifu DSLR research is the more photo u take the faster u master it. Trial and error. Some photos comes out to your liking thats the one.
Because different scene have different challenges on how to take. So by playing with the setting after awhile u will know what setting to put thats my opinion.

Quite true. Just that this 2 days have been very hectic for me and my energy drain out already. Really no mood to celebrate Christmas even. I deal with retailing solutions so this time of year is when most of my customers need us the most so everyone is kinda on a pressure cooker. But let's not spoil your holidays on my account.

After installing some apps, does the phone responsiveness slows down ? Does it feel like it somehow slows down by a lil bit ? Does having lots of pictures/vids/musics will affect it's responsiveness ?
I'm used to keypads, I'm wondering if during texting, does the virtual keys respond as quick as keypads ? Even after lots of things stored ? Atm, I'm considering on buying N8 over Desire Z, my only reason for Desire Z is for it's qwerty keys. I tend to text a lot during driving too.

For texting, nothing beats a physical keypad. That's why the BB are so hot selling nowadays too.

No for all ur questions. hahaha. dont worry apps and files wont slow ur phone down unless u occupy a lot of ur phone's memory.
and no virtual keypad can beat physical keypad la. unless u use swype. lol.
but in the end, no virtual keyboard shud be used while driving. appreciate ur life so that u can celebrate xmas man.
1) He is not using the car charger.. in fact is the compact charger which use the wall port... he did push it all the way in, but can't... It is a 2 point plug.... he even tried using the international adaptor for the charger connection... but still fail to charge his N8... so he have to use the USB data cable to charge via his laptop, and alternative use the car charger to charge.
2) Is for the back casing. Reason being, the Sirim sticker, and zitron ori sticker is stick right behind his N8.. same side of the camera lens. Thus he wants to find out whether got any N8 casing that can cover the back which directly also covers the Sirim sticker. (coz it looks ugly with the sticker stick at the back, especially when he take pics with the N8 camera function.
3) Reason for him to ask.. is..... when he put in his simcard, automatically, the 3G is turn on... and while he is trying the N8 with some apps (he was at starbucks), and his credit from rm 10 becomes rm 1.50... So he is shaking his head why the 3G is turn on, when it should be the Wifi should be turn on since he is at starbucks.

Any advise?
the stickers can be taken off but REMEMBER to tell him it must be pasted on the warranty card.
for connection, go to settings, connectivity, settings, data use in home network, set to Wlan only.
And if he doesnt use the maxis 3g internet, delete it from the access points at destination. long press the selected destination to reveal the delete options.
normal phone call and sms if less use can last 2 or 3 days
mine one unplug charger at 7.30am it will left ~50% at 6.30pm with all the time connected through edge in power saver mode... so it's a daily charge for me...
Sent my bricked phone to dealer. They will send to mobilet technic. But wth. They need 2 weeks to fix. So I won't have a proper phone from Xmas and new year.

He also gave you the gift of subsistence and abode. Whether he technically donated the cell remains to be discovered but there's no parent in the world that does not treasure their own child. So whatever you might feel like, please make it a point to be fillial to your parents.
I know that I would like my children to be like that too.

hmm colour run off a lot , i mean if compare the 2... (that's why i dun like flash )
Both using flash as I am too hungry to setup the perfect lighting conditions. The 550D was shot using the 50mm 1.8f lens and the N8 using macro mode. Looks like the lens do make a lot of difference.

1.8 is enough liao...i think after i save up enough money i also get 1.8 hehe.... 1.4 is err...maybe limited focus....in trade of nicer bokeh...

I got the 50mm 1.8 for RM299 together with the camera purchase. Quite a worthwhile investment if you want to shoot objects. Not sure if it works well for portraits as I have not found a test subject yet.

Sure you can, 50mm on your crop sensor will become medium telephoto, e.g. 50mm X 1.6 = 80mm. Try taking shots with spotlights as background (e.g. Christmas tree), shoot at f/1.8 or f/2, you'll get very nice bokeh from the spotlights.

N8 vs 550D. Looks like I will have to play more with the camera before I can improve.

Your 550D using the 50mm f/1.8 prime lens, sure better loh; With wide aperture, you can shoot in lowlight without flash, but you will get shallow depth on field (see your food not all focus, the depth is shallow). N8 max aperture is f/2.8, so if low lighting, it'll need to lower the shutter speed and/or increase the ISO, or use flash.

Go to setting > application setting > positioning > positioning methods > select only Integrated GPS, and the GPS will only look for GPS satellite. Assisted GPS and others (except bluetooth GPS) are using packet data/internet + GPS satellite.

True, true. But it's the N8 that made my DSLR bug bite me again. So end up buying one.

I didn't know that the 50mm 1.8 can shoot at higher apertures. Will try it out. Thanks for the tip. Still need to do a lot more experimenting with the 550D to improve my skills.

You mean the whole picture actually come out to have these "White contrast" thingy? It may be caused by your fingers reflecting some light to the lens itself and there you get that white constrasted picture. And yes it will significantly decrease the quality of the picture.
Try not to get in the way of the flash , that will do.

what about wiping finger prints off before taking? Try take two shots for us daylight 1 and another is like the photo u posted. It could even be the reflection of the glass reflecting back too.

ya that pic reli looks like there's oil or fingerprint on the lens. N8 is easily affected by this too.
hmm it's hard to tell wat goes wrong.. but im suspecting my hands are shaky.... as riuken have said.. bcoz sometimes it's clear.... sometimes it's not..... but when using flash, the images goes worst.... it has some white 'shadow' in the pictures taken.. lol
Added on December 27, 2010, 1:27 amfor example, wat is wrong with this pic?
hmm.. maybe u can guide me on which setting i should use to take a normal good quality pic... with/without flash? i noticed most of the time the flashes are causing the image to have 'white shadow' in it... lol wat iso? wat type of scene is best use for general photo shooting?
Morning everyone...still try to get use to the swype...quite nice the input method and fast too...only that you really need to memorise the keyboard layout a little bit...

The last I heard was the N8 was selling for RM1400 somewhere in KL. I think it's maybe cheaper now due to the recent budget announcements that will cause prices of smartphones to drop.

in my settings, only got internet, navigation, route, map and synchronization wo.. dun have positioning method =(
Repeating my other post before,
Go to setting > application setting > positioning > positioning methods > select only Integrated GPS, and the GPS will only look for GPS satellite. Assisted GPS and others (except bluetooth GPS) are using packet data/internet + GPS satellite.
