It's truly amazing what these multimedia powerhouse phones like the Nokia N82 brings us as far as capturing beautiful photos. There is so much potential for this phone to make stunning images.
Most of the time though I find myself only using the automatic scene modes instead of customizing the camera settings to get the best possible picture. Don't get me wrong the automatic scene settings work great to get some awesome photos, but Devin from The Nokia Guide has showed us what a little tweaking can do to boost the clarity and quality of the photo you are taking.
Little things like keeping the flash on during the day (sounds crazy right) really helps give more light to parts of the picture that are in the shadows. It's common for someone to think since its daytime and theres sufficient light you wouldn't need the flash. I decided to try it out in the photos below and you can really see the difference.
Warning: These photos were taken with the Nokia N95 that I am trialing from Wom World for two weeks. The second picture would look even better with the N82.
The first photo was just taking by starting up the camera and firing away.

Here it is with the flash on.

Now you have more detail in the label and can see what the label says without blowing up the picture.
Devin also talks about other little things like autofocus and digital zoom. Click here to head over and read the very informative article.

Nice work. You have just redefined the style we call "Fill Flash" in general photography.

Hi, is there anyway to change the default option on my N82's camera? The flash always seems on. I have tried finding a way around this but only hit blocks. Any help will be much appreciated since i don't like overkilling pictures with light.
Thanks.
Hi NikhilS...
There is no way to make it default. We mentioned this in my recent post about what can be fixed in the next firmware update. Maybe it would be good to go post the same thing there as well.
