N86 camera lens defect?

First post ever here, will try to make it clear. Thanks for understanding..
I think that the camera lens on my N86 is defect or that there's something wrong with the software; without exaggerating, 8 out of 10 photo's I make at night (with flash) are blurry and totally unclear. Even when trying really hard to hold the phone still I have the same results. Does anyone else experience the same?
Daytime pics are spot on, nothing to complain about.
Software version is 21.006
Please help...

Hi there, I have noticed that night time/indoor low light is disappointing and grainy. I too have v21 software upgrade and still not happy that the original v11 focus square for the centre of the screen has been replaced with an off centre where ever it chooses to focus point not good for a flagship camera...

Nokia n97 camera lens/ can i return it to the stor...

hi
i just my nokia n97 a few weeks ago and my camera lens is getting scratched because of the camera cover. i searched the site and many people said its a hardware problem, will care centre be able to fix it, or can i go back to the store where i have bought it on a contract and return it for another fone eg. HTC magic.
thanks alot..kinda disappointed for the defect...
n97.

The lens shutter on a camera is supposed to protect the lens, that why its there. However, in this case the N97, it has a design fault, and as such the shutter is not fit for purpose.
Now, if the shop are unwilling to exchange the device for a device without the flaw demand a refund of your money. If they still refuse to do anything then contact your local trading standards, you will be able to find their address or phone number from the link below.
Its the shops responsiblity to sort this out so don't let them tell you otherwise.

Nokia n86 camera photos preview problem

hey, i have a problem with my nokia n86
when i go to Photos > Captured photos
and i "travel" by the months that the pictures were taken,
for some pictures, the preview image is completely different than the actual image!
for example, i browse the phone for some the pictures taken in september 2011. then, when i choose one and try to use it, or even if i enlarge the picture i chose, i find out that the preview is plain wrong!
this bug is for most of the pictures i took.
this is really annoying - i can't find pics i took and use them. i must move them all to the computer
also restart wont fix it.
and i tried to update the software but it is the latest.

Hi MS23,
Welcome to the Nokia Forum and thank you for your post.
Please reinstall the phone's current software using Nokia Suite. Click on the green arrow, where the option to reinstall the current software will be displayed in blue.
This will clear up the bug that's causing the preview of the image to be incorrect.
Please get back to me to let me know if you manage to resolve your issue, otherwise I can provide further support.

Nokia n95 8gb moisture in camera lens - HELP

Hi, I have Nokia n95 8gb and while have been in a shower I have left it in the bathroom and now my lenses are moistured/water from inside of camera/lens. How can I fix/dry this?
PLEASEEE HELP ME.

Many people take the phone into the bathroom whilst taking a bath or shower not realising this actually harms your phone!
Steam has entered the phone and turned to condensation and this is never good for an electrical product.
This will probably cause you many problems sooner or later, but for now remove the battery as having the battery in the phone whilst it is still wet is damaging your phone with current from the battery surging through all those components joint together inside with water.
Then put the phone in a warm dry place, where you have your boiler for your home as an example, and leave it there for a few days.
This should dry out any liquid there is inside the phone but only time will tell of the amount of damage has occured.
My posts are my opinion and in no way the direct views of Nokia.

Nokia N86 and (Snow) Leopard

Does anyone here know if the Nokia N86 smartphone is compatible with the latest cats, Leopard and Snow Leopard?
I currently have an N73 and it interfaces just fine either via USB or Bluetooth and the Nokia Multimedia Transfer app (1.4). iSync, iPhoto, iTunes are able to speedily do their thing with the phone. Bluetooth connectivity started working again after the 10.5.8 update. However, that phone is getting dated and my carrier is currently offering very attractive hardware upgrade plans for the holiday season; since the main use I have for it (besides making calls and sending SMS's) is taking pictures, the N86 fabulous 8 megapixel camera with mechanical shutter and Zeiss lens is really attractive.
Nokia says the Multimedia Transfer app is not compatible, but it said the same thing about the N73, so I'd rather ask the Discussions Collective any experiences with this N86 phone. Yeah or nay?
Oh, and why am I blaspheming about a Nokia instead of following the One True Faith and getting an iPhone? Cause it is too bloody expensive over here with our carriers! Not only is it expensive to get, it is even more so to maintain!! Doubles or triples what I currently pay.

How to clean c5-00 camera lens inside and out

pls help my phone is kinda cloudy when taking pictures... how to clean it properly and clening agents which is found on local market. tnx

Hi phoenixzurc,
If there is dust under the camera lens, please take the device to Nokia Care point and ask if they can clean it. Trying to clean it yourself might void the warranty of the device and potentially damage it. If there is dust on the lens, you can try to clean it with dry cloth.
Hope this helped!

The new Nokia Pro Cam is not user friendly AT ALL ...

After the Amber update on my Lumia 920, I downloaded the new Nokia Pro Cam app, due to most people claiming that it produces very good quality photos. I agree that the photos clicked using Pro Cam are of better quality than those clicked with the built in camera app. But this Pro CAM is not at all user friendly.
First thing is the most frustrating. The built in camera app allows taking photos by just touching anywhere on the screen, but the Pro Cam required you to touch one specific spot on the screen for this purpose. This is highly inconvenient, especially when taking self photos using the main camera. I know that the photo can be clicked even using the camera launch button, but this serves no purpose because pressing that button actually shakes the phone a bit and makes the photo blurry.
The next thing is, the settings of Pro Cam are denoted by symbols and not text. Camera professionals may feel comfortable with these images, but for the common man, its really difficult to understand what these symbols actually mean. I don't understand how Nokia came up with the idea of complicating matters by replacing the text with symbols for settings.
Finally, there are no settings at all for the front camera, which is also a disappointment becasue we're forced to use the deafult settings.
Hence, in spite of better image quality with this Pro Cam, I'd rather stick with the built-in camera app because the Pro Cam is too cumbersome and tedious to use. So what do you people feel about this Nokia Pro Cam?

Hi,
Maybe the following explanations can help.
1. There is a plus point to this also. Suppose you need to only focus on a subject and not shoot straight away. You can do that by touch the screen where you want to focus, without actually taking the shot. Shot can then be taken by pressing the dedicated on-screen shutter button.
I actually prefer it this way. You just can do that in the WP8 camera app.
2. Here again, all the symbols used are standard photography symbols you will find on any dedicated camera. Even they don't have full names, only symbols. This should not be a major problem, you will learn very quickly what all these symbols mean.
3. People usually use front camera for video chat (or to check if your hair is ok or not!). The requirement for video chat is that you don't need a very high end image/video quality. Moreover, the front facing camera quality is not that good too, so there is no point is providing all that functionality used for rear camera.
You can try using Nokia Glam Me lens, to add some post processing to selfies.

Ayushmaan

Camera lens protector for Lumia 620.

I need a lens protector for my lumia 620 camera but I don't where can I buy it in Kuching . I can get it from Nokia warranty ? Please kindly help me . It's urgent . I don't want my camera lens consist of any scratches . Thanks

Do you mean like a clear stick on screen protector? Don't think anyone uses them because they degrade the quality of the photographs taken through them. What you could do is to get a silicon case which should provide some protection to the lens by creating a recess for it.

Camera lens cover broken

hi all, i had my n900 for a while now.camera lens cover(top part) has peeled off from its glue and the wire makes the cover open and close came loose by itself. i have the warranty but i do not want to send my phone just for the cover for 2 weeks. is there any place on web that i can order the lens cover only and replace it my self. its very east to remove since its plastic base.i only have the blue base on the phone now and it is loose so its keep opening the camera mode. very annoying. please help.

Take it to a store (Nokia or network) and ask if you can just have the back panel replaced. Or, try to find one online. Markets usually sell the covers too

Hi Rocker313
I am afraid your phone camera is ruined and the only way to fix this problem would be get a replacement. You can take it to a Nokia Care Point and see if they can refurbish your device.
However the warranty does not cover water damage so there will be a charge.
