BlackHowling (me lar!) AP 1700 + 512mb M2 Blue

I rather use SE than Nokia. That's y i bought the k850i

Edit :

To take night pictures, just set the iso to 400 and use the best pic feature and hopes that ur hand wont get shaky while taking the pics, lol ( usually the default picture that it choose is pretty clear to me ). Other than that, u need to take the pics up close in the dark +_+; seems like the shutter speed is pretty slow when taking the picture from a far like, 1.8 meters above (with flash on of course). :/ Wait for the firmware, ey?

Here are some examples of pic that i take using the k850i.



Pic 1 and 2 : Taken using iso 400 and best pic option.

Pic 3 : Taken using iso 400, flash. See that we get dark picture when the object is around 1.8 meters above?

Pic 4 : Taken using the same setting as pic 3 but we get better picture when taking up close around 1.5 meters and less. But still, we still get dark pics.

This is just my two cents, correct me if i'm wrong

No, i didn't zoom. :/ My hands were shaky when taking the pics

Are u expecting something like Carl Zeiss image? Anyway, i didnt do any editting with the photo. +_+; It should be ok after doing some editting in photoshop Or, wait for the firmware to release, then we see how it performs.

Erm, how to say this @_@ Distance from u and object, 1 3/4 depa (old math thing measurement) It should be around 1.5m - 1.7m. So budget lor around that measurement



Like i say, there's a problem in the k850i shutter speed timing. Or, maybe becoz i'm suck . Hope that the firmware will release soon, so we can decide the fate of k850i future from there. Anyway, nice pic u have there, org melaka juga ka?


I'm not a professional photographer, but i know some of the settings for certain situation coz i used to play my friend's DSLR. XD

OH! I forgot to mentioned that all the picture above were taken using 5 mega pixel.



k800i is good, i admit. It's just that it didnt have photo fix like k850i and it's pretty bulky due to the camera. k810i got photo fix, but i don't like it's keypad X( So, i ended up buying k850i that have better keypad and better features. Some more, it use keypad for navigation, not joystick.

Same with me. The day that i bought this phone, i go to the Sony Ericsson shop at KLCC. I ask one of the chinese female worker over there for ori set price.

me :k850i bila sampai?

worker : ori or ap?

me : ori.

worker : Stock tak sampai lagi la encik. AP dah release

me : ori bila sampai?

worker : maybe next 2 week. Around 2K+

me : oo. Takpe la. Thanks for the info.

After that, i call the seller of my phone to do C.O.D. Cannot wait any longer.

So far my phone didnt gave me any problems YET. And.. i know why my picture blur before, coz i use ISO400 that produce too much noise, lol.

Good luck in buying the k850i, i'll be waiting here for any updates on it.

Just to make sure they won't lose so many k850i, lol. That's why they show one unit only. After all, with this so many hypes about the phone floating around here, they sure risau one.!

Nice idea. Need to reconfirm it's original first, since there are some sellers that says he/she sell ORI phone, but actually its an AP sets. Beh.

Say, how to flash the firmware for AP set phone? .____.!

Deathbringer : *pats* Pity you

My phone age is almost a month now, still haven't encounter any problem yet.

So AP sets can upgrade their firmware thru SEUS? I kinda need it if the image quality improves by it.

Hmm maybe he meant the R1CA037 version. I might be wrong here tho.

VGA shooting as in? Taking pics? K850i can do that.

G-Izzat : He did say "5 mega pixel comparison challengers are n95,LG KU990,samsumg g660 and sonny ericsson k850
and check which one is better"

Must be him posting the wrong link. XD Hmm nice review, SE needs to do something about their k850i's camera performance, or it will stay behind those other three contenders

So far i didn't suffer any bugs other than the picture goes black while using flash :/



Of course it will.

They're using the same slot. Just flip it over, for micro sd.

1) ISO 200 is my favourite.

2) Red light is i think it will detects the object's distance from the camera. I think in k850i have this too, while using flash.

3) Do u mean stabilizer? Yes there are. If u mean the auto tilt from portrait to landscape feature, it have. But if shake that can change music tracks, no.

No problem for me.

So far, i still didn't have any problems yet using this phone. Lucky, i guess?

Higher ISO = more colour and noise (noise get depends on camera lens).

In this case, ISO 200 has been my standard setting as the colour u get is good, plus u can clean the noise easily using a denoising software, like Neat Image. ISO 100 fails as it has less colours. Oh, make sure u take at least 2-3 pictures when u turn off the flash, and prays that it won't blur due to your hand shaking.

EDIT:

To prove u this, http://img171.imageshack.us/img171/6476/dsc00479hf6.jpg is an example. I use ISO 200. leveled it using photoshop, and denoise it using Neat Image 5.2.
