Camera
I have to deal with the multimedia features separately, as there are so many important things to write about the camera and the music player, that I could fill more than two pages. We get a 5 megapixel Schneider-Kreuznach lens for taking pictures, and there is also a LED flash to provide some additional light, and of course there’s autofocus as well, which has two settings: infinite and macro mode.

We should hold the phone horizontally, the most important settings (focus, flash, white balance) are accessible on the right, but if we tap the cogwheel, we get a cool, rotating submenu where we can set image size, quality, focusing method, the image stabilizer, image sequencing and the self timer. There is geotagging support, while ISO value can be set between 100 and 800, and the software supports face recognition as well.
Exposure is not very fast, we should hold the phone still after the sound effect, or the image might get blurry. These two things should really have been synchronized. The images (above) are very mixed. Some of them are really good, but noise filtering is sometimes too powerful, and it’s completely useless on other pictures, as there is still very much noise left on the picture. On one of the images we can see chromatic aberration as well, but this time it’s not purple like on some Sony Ericsson models, but bright green. In many cases the image stabilizer didn’t help, and the picture got blurry, this is mostly due to the delayed exposure. We can take relatively good pictures, but we have to pay a lot of attention, and this makes the point of mobile phone photography loose its meaning a bit.
The device is strong in video recording, we can record movies at 720 x 480 pixels, and there are such settings like making the phone pay attention to sounds coming from the front or the back. Of course video clips recorded at 30 fps take up a lot of memory, here’s 36 second recording, where a beautiful lady greets our readers, straight from Hungary (I just wrote this so that you click on it) and it takes up over 9 megabytes.
We won’t be disappointed by reviewing. Movies are played back without any lags and at the pictures we can again use the multitouch, which is again very practical. The gallery loads thumbnails quickly and if we tilt the phone, the photos slide in very spectacularly, and it’s not even annoying. There is a slideshow mode as well, although I don’t like that very much. We can transform the videos with the built-in muvee application. Oh, by the way, the phone has no problem playing back DivX, XviD and MPEG4 format videos. We can really make something out of this image quality and the 3” display size.
