Help Is the camera really THIS bad?

Has anybody tried different camera apps. I like camera FV-5.

Camera360 is okay. I've tried a number of different ones, but can't find a happy medium for all different situations.

I have a Maxx HD, not an M, but I believe both cameras are pretty much the same.

Just have to play with the settings. Are these cameras great? No, but they are decent. The first pic I took was in very low light, auto settings, no flash. The second pic was the same low light, on HDR, and no flash. Big difference.

The minus signs look the same to me.....

Same to me too.

Oh, I see now I'm too lazy to post the pics again tbh.

Did you move the originals in your photo site? Happens in Photobucket all the time. Post pictures on website, move photo to a folder, link is now wrong for website posted to.

Alright, well that failed miserably Here are those pics that didn't show up before, along with some newer ones. It's a decent camera once you figure out how to use it. Not great, but decent. Is it good in low light? Not particularly, but how many phone cameras are good in low light honestly?

Sorry if anyone's screens go crazy. I left these at full res so you guys could really inspect them. They resize quickly on my laptop

I've been playing around this morning with Windows Live Photo Gallery. It has a sharpen tool to edit pics. If you add just a little bit of sharpness, it definitely helps with the slight fuzzyness that the RMHD's pics (and the M's obviously )can have at times. I recommend it to everyone (or photoshop or some other similar program).

Get the new update. indoor pics vastly improved. Night time. One lamp on in room. Kitchen light from behind me is on with indirect light. ie: dim lighting in room.

No flash. Color is much more rich than appears on computer.



With flash. Slightly washed out but no more blue haze:

WOW. Where are all the camera whiners and moaners? You'd think they'd be overjoyed....

I was thrilled to see this update! I haven't had a chance to use it in real life situations, but am very hopeful.

(I assume you were referring to me as one of either the whiners or moaners).

Ahh, just playing. Yup, it's a lot better.
