N85 - Poor quality camera / flash

1 replies · 3,140 views · Started 03 January 2009

Hi,

I purchased my N85 last week and im really disappointed by the camera quality in low light conditions. The flash seems very poor quality. All the pictures turn out very dark / brownish. My wife has a 6500 slide (which also has double LED flash) and her pictures are 10 times better quality in low light conditions. I've looked on the nokia forums and it seems that there are a lot of people complaining of similar issues. Is this likely to be fixed via firmware updates or is it more likely to be an issue with the hardware ?

Have you got the latest firmware?

There was a problem with image noise in the initial firmware, which was fixed. I think it also fixed a problem where the flash completely saturated the image if used closed-up.
