Is there a way to change camera settings on this phone, as far as lighting? Taking pictures outside is not possible because the screen is just white.

There is a white balance adjustment. I do love this phone, but the camera on it isn't that great. This phone is all about durability and basic function.

This phone appears to be a non-camera phone. Keep looking and you will find one that has a camera. I now own 2 with cameras and have had no problems. Verizon doesn't like anyone to buy this phone as they want all their customers to own Smartphones.

Hi Edward. I had a few of my pictures turn out the same way. I was holding the camera wrong and my finger was covering the lens. You do need to have quite a bit of light to take a good picture. Works better on outside shots. Good luck. It is a fun little camera. I do enjoy ours.

Yes, pop the back cover off the phone, snap the one from the kit, screw the lens in, go to camera mode, take pictures.there are led lights to light up what your looking at too.

I believe it does have that option, I think I turned it off when I was using it. It does fade in picture quality, some pictures will come out dark, but it's not a background or setting issue, & many of the pictures come out very pixelated, in spite of settings & background. I get 20x's the quality in pictures from my phone.

I did the update a couple of weeks ago - I checked the OS version number for the 810 WP8 GDR 2 is 8.0.10327.77 (the 920 has a different build number supposedly) - I DID check the following link and my 810 specifically indicates LUMINA AMBER in nice Amber text....NOTE - obviously the specifics of the update are relative to the specific phone... GREAT phone - The box was sealed - VERY happy - it isn't a tiny phone... and there is a fairly large 'frame' area outside the screen (in relative terms), but being able to add a microSD and having removable battery.... KEY for me. The 8Gb for app storage is plenty unless you like a lot of crap and games on your phone - I am not sure if the AMBER allows you to move maps to the SD (I heard it was being talked about - cannot verify right now) - of course the camera isn't 'bad' but if you want a good picture of anything you'll want a lens larger than an M&M and a real image sensor....a REAL camera ;-) http://www.nokia.com/ca-en/support/faq/?action=singleTopic&topic=FA142009 I edited this - the wake on tap IS working - and so is GLANCE screen...(including peek - which shows info by just waving your hand over the screen) - I am sure there is more I missed since I installed the update and didn't really look at the changes until JUST now :-)

have you check the ISO youre using? I had the same problem when i had my setting at the highest ISO. I now just leave it as AUTO and have great pics. If thats not the problem, then i dunno what is. Sorry!

Hey Mark, Try setting the camera to the "P" on the dial (stands for Program AE). Once you do, click the Q. MENU button on the bottom right of camera. Select the ISO setting and change it to 200 or 400. I'm having the same issues as you with this camera and its poor low light performance. To get better shots indoors, it helps to crank up the ISO to a higher setting. The downside is that the picture may come in a bit grainy. The higher the ISO, the more grain, but at least you'll have a brighter and clearer picture. At ISO 200 and 400, you shouldn't have too much grain for it to ruin the picture. Let me know if it works!

Hi, I don't have advice- but have the same problem! I'm frustrated that I purchased this camera and now can probably not return it!!! Good luck!! let me know if you find any tricks to get better pictures.

The camera does not have a built in lens. It accepts different interchangeable lenses each with it's own lens cap. Perhaps you should stick with the camera on your phone.

The Camera on my Phone takes very clear Pics. The lack of a Manual / Operating Instructions is very frustrating. You may have purchased a "reconditioned " phone as some others seem to have. The Camera on your Phone should be producing clear Pictures !

I, also, believe that the "new" phone I ordered was not new. The camera does not produce clear, crisp pictures of the previous camera of the same type that was lost. Since I don't use my phone camera I did not return the phone but I would suggest that, if you rely on the phone camera, return the phone and request another new one.
