anyone know if you can zoom in to a target before actually akin the pic, i know how to do it afterwards but not before!
or do i have to install another application or summit??

You cannot zoom using the built in camera software but third party apps such as Camera FX 1.3.1 and Photographer 2.0 support this feature.

Camera FX has the best functions but Photographer produces better quality pictures.

Where can I find all those third party applications ?
I want to know what apps exist...
tnx

Camerafx is mostly the fancy looking program. Adding effects mostly. You can find a trial at www.Wildpalm.Co.Uk . But the quality of the pictures taken with it even with no zoom are worst even than the ones taken with the standard camera app that comes with the phone. Photographer is for quality. Even with the zoom at 8x (max:16x) the picture taken is bilinear/bicubic filtered so the quality is almost the best you can achieve. Unfortunately there is no trial on photographer, but it has won the competition of the best image series 60 program by nokia. Highly recommended...

what if i cannot connect my 3650 to my pc at present can i download directly over gprs wap many of the apps?
hope so.... 😞

Just check this url from wap. U can download trials from there (it is the my-symbian wap site by the way) http://wap.my-symbian.com

i already have this photographer v 2.0 i don't know how to use the Zoom function? do i need to have a 3rd party application or what?

I havent tried it cause im a globe user, but I think in smart u can browse any wapsite u want but unlike in globe, it not a free service u get charged per kb that u download. Downloading from open bit is not free as u can only download and try their demo products.
