i'm on my second white 920, returned the first due to battery issues. i've started playing with the camera and noticed that it does not take low light photos well. i tried taking photos in a dark room, using default settings and focus assist light on and the end result is dark photo with barely anything visible (see attached).
is anyone else having this problem with the camera sensor in low or almost no light situations? i've seen it demoed on Internet a few times where people take photos in very low or almost no light situations and they've gotten pretty good results. but for me, i'm not getting anything visible in my photos.
I am a new Lumia 1520 owner and had been using an iPhone prior. On iPhone, I could take a screen shot just by pressing two buttons simultaneously and it would do so. With the Lumia, it seems I can only save a photo that's displaying on my screen. But what if I wanna take a screen shot of a text message conversation.
How many photos can you take on a single charge (say from 100% to 15%) Living images and rich capture off, most or all services off like cellular, wifi, bluetooth..There is a new blog on the devices blog which says Mr. Stephen was taking about 1000 photos a day using the lumia 950 and 950Xl. I find that hard to believe. URL...
For example, using my lumia 1020, the most I have been able was 280 photos of 5+38/34 JPEG with flight mode on and GPS on - battery down from 100 to 15%
After having it 3 days, just about to write about how XPRT is a "Blackberry Killer" then took some pics at the 5MP res and found a lot of "picture noise" in my shots. In some online discussions some say it may have to do with Froyo. Everything else on the phone is amazing. But there is something wrong with the camera. Shots are not clean and crisp. I cleaned the lens and checked all the settings and have a pretty steady hand.
Well i know its not possible to get focus shorter than 15 cm with 1020, but when you try to focus an closer thing, in a second it gets the focus, and then loses it. So i was thinking here, if there is any trick to shorter this distance.
While I'm not a huge photo taker, I find it really annoying to snap one and have this purple tint above it. I've noticed that my camera cover has tiny scratches in the center. I'm pretty sure that's what is causing the purple tint maybe the reflection of the light.
I have two issues. I took a picture using Nokia camera app which is on default. Some pics didn't save.
Next is when you take picture. When u go to photo albums. You see a link below saying open in Nokia camera. How come pics have that link and others don't? I took some smartcam pics too look at later and can't open it up and do the action shots and other stuff.
I use nokia c6-01 for a while. And I have noticed Camera light is always on. And it kills battery. I have tried hard reset. My battery can't even survive one day.
I already installed Camera Extras app on my Lumia 800, but when I try to use one of its features the camera format switch automatically to 4:3 format.Is anybody who knows about this bug ?
I bought a Lumia 920 5 days ago and I realized that the front keys (back, start, and search) do not light up. The only time it lights up is when I open the phone from the lock screen and it lasts about half a second. I also have a Samsung Focus S Windows Phone and the keys stay lit while I'm using the phone.
my Nokia E63 camera light has been staying on, i dont know how to get rid of it, i think its using more of the battery, and when i turn it off it remains on, the only way it disapears is when i take the battery out.
I have a Nokia E72 (in fact i found the same problem on 5 devices with all possible firmware versions) and all of them had the same camera problem : in strong light condition (eg in the middle of the day, outside) camera cannot focus. It tries once but the brackets remain white and focus is not fixed, if i take the photo it is blurry.
Just wondering if any other owners of the Lumia 710 are seeing light scratches on the screen? I've only had the device for a couple of weeks and already have a couple of light scratches that are visible in daylight. I'm very surprised at this as I keep the phone in a case most of the time and have been very careful with the device in general. If kept in a pocket it has always been on its own with no keys or coins. I've owned several other devices over the last few years, with and without Gorilla Glass, and have never had a single scratch on any screen after months of use. To have a couple on the 710 after only a few weeks is rather alarming.
My brand new Lumia 900 has light bleeding onto the screen from the capacitive button's backlight. There is also light coming out on the leftside between the glass and the polycarbonate.
As the happy owner of Nokia 808Pureview i have the questions about the notification lights and low power screensaver. Does the 820 or 920 have this feature? I'm very use to use the always on display clock to check time and missed calls/messages. I found this very useful during night etc. It's not necessary to always unlock the phone... I know WP7.5 missed this feature but what about Lumia WP8? If this has still not been implemented, it's very step backwards for Nokia. I thing lot of customers are used to this function...
I recently got my Nokia N97 Mini and I am just wondering if its possible to disable the Camera Shutter noise whenever your taking a picture, And is it possible to turn off the Red Light when recording? Its annoying when I am trying to record something, Sometimes it will reflect off surfaces.. Also the Camera Shutter noise is annoying, Interrupts silence when I want to take pictures, at special events. Is there a way to Disable these 2 things?
When i put the flash on off mode the flash light turns on when the camera is focusing and it is annoying if you try to photo a person , as the light hurts the eye , is there a way of turning it off completly.
I just want to share my experience with you.I've been using an unlocked Lumia 800 for a week now and I actually like the phone, however these camera problems are just unacceptable.
The camera has SERIOUS white balance problems, and, for me the most important, the auto-focus is just ridiculous. It works bad, but focusing on "macro" objects is just a no go, even usin the touch focus or the "macro" focus mode. Another problem is the lens flare, which reflects how bad these optics might be. You really think that the Carl Zeiss branded optics anything here? Think again. My HTC Incredible S, with its "OEM" optics, (or the Iphone 4S or the SII) just humiliates this camera. Also, is that so hard to make a green square focus confirmarion?
How can they release a flagship device, with this price range, with these problems? No wonder why Nokia is where it is standing now, "almost" in a closing-doors status. They really need better engineers and programmers because everytime they let this happen with a device, they're tossing away their valuable customers. And they really deserve it.
And as I've been reading, the Lumia 900 is having the same problems... How sad is this?
got an issue with brand new nokia lumia 900.hone is fully updated and when i tap on "camera" or use the camera button, the software for it launches, but buttons are all greyed out then it closes. Ive ran it in diagnostic mode with the same problem.
I am not talking about my experience of my phone. Right now, I have an issue of my Lumia 710's camera. It freezes when I shoot a picture in ISO 200 (Which I manually tune on the settings). After the hangs, I am able to exit the camera application but, pressing the shutter button won't open the camera anymore until I reboot my phone. And opening the camera from the application list (After the freezes) will only lead to the blank screen.I have already reset my phone thrice, reinstall my software and reset the camera, but the issue won't disappear.
I have a Lumia 800 since 6 months, running WP7 Tango (8773) and firmware 12220. Since a week, the camera is not working anymore : the camera app launches (by starting it from the start screen or camera button), but except from the app's UI, the screen remains black. Same story when switching to video mode or after restarting the phone.
My totally new Nokia Lumia 920 camera hasn't worked since I got it, 29/11/2012. I bought the phone firstly because of the camera reviews. Now, I haven't taken a single picture/video with the shiny new lumia 920. Pressing the hardware camera button or tile just flips back to the current screen, no camera viewport, nada.
The camera is so bad I have stopped using it as main camera and gone back to my Sony Dsc t700, I'm sick of having to change settings every time I want to take a photo, and still have a poor quality image. I have given up on my phones camera.does anyone else have the same opinion or an answer to my problem?
took it out side in the daylight to shoot some pics and the screen went almost totally White!! everything very overexposed... Camera settings are set to default. Did a reset and a complete back to factory defaults reset, but same issue...?
