Help Desire S Camera settings

Hello

I've had my Desire S for a couple of weeks. Took some photos with it recently but there seems to be a lot of JPG compression, presumably to keep the filesize small.

My 6 year old Sony camera is 7.1MP and gives a pretty consistent file size of around 3.5MB per picture, so I was assuming a resolution of 5MP would result in 2.5MB or thereabouts. But the photos are coming out at with a large range of 750Kb to 1.75MB.

Pixel size is correct, but I can't find any settings to change the quality: this website shows a 'quality' setting on a previous Desire model, but I can't find it on mine. Am I just being daft, or is it no longer there?

Alternatively, are there any cameras apps that concentrate purely on the jpg quality, without bells and whistles of special effects etc? I can do them on my computer later.

Thanks in advance

Gary.
