Nokia N97 5mp camera
Ok — a quick post to share the performance of N97′s camera.
Did we tell you that N97 has a 5-megapixel autofocus camera with Carl Zeiss Tessar optics and sports a double LED flash.. Again, we love the high-end looking plastic cover that slides very pleasantly. It’s catchy for a camera lens cover!
We didnt go into technical details, but do judge for yourself; these photos were taken using N97 sported camera. These images are unedited, and uploaded directly from the camera to flickr; jpeg compressed images are shown below. You may also upload the images directly to Facebook, Ovi, Vox or email them.
This is taken outside, almost noon. Just realised my kirai daun is still lodging in there on the drain cover! I think the quality is good, very minimal overexposure… on the sharpness, I’d blame the unsteady hand — however, for a mobile camera — I do think this is still very good!
This is taken at the shortest possible distance when on potrait mode; under normal lighted room condition, during daytime. There is a macro mode that allows shooting at about 4-inch, but we forgot to snap at that distance (maybe soon). Btw, this is a a very personal diary of Tapa
This is taken at about 9:30 PM, with no flash.
This is taken at night, normal room lighting condition! Great details.This was taken without flash eventhough there is this module using dual LED — suprisingly, Nokia did not use Xenon falsh which is more powerful (most possibly due to battery life strategy). Because of this, I thought then that indoor shots under low lights would be a bit noisy — but this photo proved me otherwise. Great stuff!

So, what now? For the techies, the max resolution available is 2584 x 1938 pixels and max video resolution is VGA at 30fps, and there is a widescreen setting too at 16:9! I think N97 has a very good camera, the quality if good (not as good as their 8mp N86 camera, of course), the autofocus is also quick fast! The instant upload capability to major social networking sites is good — I am now setting up to have images uploaded directly to mobilephotos/travelphotos! On camera, no disappointment, so far!
