wow... they are pretty much the same! the camera has a little bit better lightning (very little tho) and its a little sharper... but i say this is really good for a camera phone! one of the best out right now

Yeah, the quality of the camera is a bit better, not that much better though. Just less grainy, it's a bit clearer.

Yea. It looks alright. But what about this picture I took with the Nokia 6600

It looks sorta alright.

My philosophy is: the quality of a camera photo picture, depends where your light source is

Think about it....

[gophermaster]

Yeah, light generally plays a key role, but there are other factors in producing a good picture.

I've found that the 6600 generally performs well in medium amount of light, such as indoors, or at night, under artificial lighting. I have seen its results in sunlight, and believe me they are awful. I'll post some comparisons of photos taken outside later when i get bored once again

Guess we know our formulas and philosophies really well then
