    I also moderate on www.arofanatics.com's photography section and here's a thread dedicated to phone aquatic photography.

    Pehaps we should start one here?

    Cheers,

    Yeah! How about a mobile phone photography competition next trip?

    PS: Benny, I wanted to buy a K800i when I was replacing my mobile phone. However, it wasn't out then . Is the quality really that good? K750i not any impressive on pictures.

    The K750i was replaced by the K800i. So I thought might as well get this one. I'm sure the K750i is also good as I've seen a lot of folks using it.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    The phone is extremely good, I will recommend it to anyone looking for a mobile phone. The MP3 player as well but the built in speaker is quite soft compared to Nokia series. However, Nokia users will find the vibrator abit weak.
    The camera cannot really make it, without zoom, highest quality with fine settings and no zoom, the picture turns out very grainy.

    One example attached. Not to mention no optical zoom function for this phone.
    Cheers and Regards,

    I'm using one, it's not bad for normal shots, but anything to do with night and bright light it fails.

    There're some excellent shots by a k800i user here. In this case, it's really the user

    Bright light are especially worst. I remember taking some pictures of my baby gal in the playground at night but when even the back light (those commonly used in playground) comes into the picture, there will be one straight line of over exposure.
    btw, those pictures were digitally enhanced (sharpern etc). Probably using photoshop, but atleast it deserved to be edited.....

    Having the equipment is one thing, taking time to completely know how to use it and make the best out of the feature is another.

    Just like... keeping a fish is one thing but taking care it to show the full beauty of it is another challenges, true??

    I believe no equipment can really cover up the deficiency in photographic skill... worst still... it can magnify it. However, good equipment, with skills, can greatly expand the possibilities of capturing great photos.

    I agree 101% that it is the photograher that makes the picture, not the camera. But then again, with the correct tools, this process becomes easier and you can have more flexibility.
