Hello guys. I'm a current N82 user and I love its camera quality. However, I do find its Xenon flash to be a bit too powerful so I'm planning to stick to an LED flash-equipped phone instead. My friends are actually complaining the same thing too since when they allow me to capture portraits of them, they want the flash to be turned off.

So I'm gonna ask seriously for the current N79 owners. Is the camera quality of N79 really FAR below the n82 as what other users suggest?

Alright, heres some sample day shots taken from a Nokia N82:

And heres some sample night shots taken from a Nokia N82:

Please compare it guys. Or if anyone can post a link to a bunch of day and night photos taken from a N79 that are uneditted, please post it here. I'll be very grateful especially night photos which matters me most as people claim that N79 is particularly bad in this.

Please N79 users. Thanks and god bless to all.

    knggpnnn, 27 Jun 2009Is is truth that pictures are so bad? I mean don't compare ... moreI do think picture quality is one of the worse out there. I had before a Sony ericsson K550 and that one that cost $200 less took better pictures!. I hate this cell phone, I'm looking forward to buy my SE C901

      Hi, i purchase a nokia n79 few days ago...
      My experience is just awesome. My passion is using latest mobiles it is one of the great piece in nokia n series. It's faster, light weight, best software based.

        N79 fans in Singapore!!, I've called up Nokia & confirmed that product was discontinue due to low sales(indeed expensive)....what a pity, I felt sad as I can't replace my dream phone with any other model at this moment.☺

                      i brought this phone since it hac all the connectivity options i need i'm really sure of not selling this one it is better to use the phone with pc suit instead of usin it as a mass storage divice to prevent viruses

                      AFTER ALL IT's THE BEST PHONE

                              just want to share my exp, in case anyone have it too.

                              problem when using music player,it showed general system error. somebody suggested to me problem due to mem card error, probably not properly formatted, causing error when player reads data (my mp3s) from mem card. problem solved after reformat the memory card.

                              btw, i copied all memcard content to pc using mass storage mode, then copy it back after format. everything seems intact,no need to reinstall program.

                              this is my best phone so far.it has all the nice features you'd want from phone these days.

                              if anyone thinking of buying it,then just buy it!
