    I'm fiddling around with the camera too, there's a lot of options to choose from. I'm a photography nerd and therefore I lack some features, but you can easily get rid of its limitations if you know how to use the awesome photo editor included. I can't share my pics now but I will soon.

    PS. Sadly...


    All the photos I have posted here have been taken with just default settings. I could rarely be bothered with fiddling beyond choosing 'close up'. The editor is fantastic if your way around it.

    Didn't the flash automatically appear at the night pic? That's strange. Oh anyway, you should fiddle around with some manual settings, specially the flash and exposure; they don't require a lot of knowledge (they're pretty much intuitive), and the quality on your pics will dramatically improve.

    Well I did disable the flash in that first pic. Exposure, ISO and sharpness etc I ignore.

    After Nokia dumping the N900 a few guys started a Community SSU, which basically means they will release updates for the OS. New MediaPlayer is on the planning, fixes in email client and desktop ----> Nice


    Glad to here that the community are still keeping it alive. I may one day pick one up to fiddle around with.
  5. Well its getting 'dated' fast like every piece of technology. Only great thing about it is all the hacky stuff you can do with it.

    If I had to buy a phone now it would be an Android. But i dont mind doing another year with this nokia

    Android is always tempting. I get bored with it oh so quickly though. Still might pick up a tablet Android to avoid getting a second phone. Will be interesting to see where Android goes with the impending Oracle law suit.
  7. Worst case scenario is one pile of cash is going from 1 giant to the other.

    Tablets are nice, i will save some money for a htpc / home server. I'll let the tablets mature for a year or two.
  8. I have a video on my phone that I took when holding it in portrait (top to bottom). When played back on the computer it plays side ways in landscape. Any programs that I can use to flip it the right way up?
  9. Movie editting apps can do this. DOnt know if Windows Movie Maker can do it but you can try. Import the video, add to timeline and try to rotate the clip. You will lose some quality.

    There might be easier and lossless solutions. I dont know

    Tried movie maker. It seems to work but inverts the image so it's like watching the existing video in a mirror. Either way when I save it I only get a movie maker project file. How do I save the actual video file?
  11. Export or something like that. I am not sure.
  12. Ctrl+G saves the project as a MSWMM (Media Maker extension), but do Ctrl+P and you'll be able to export it to various formats (AVI, WMV, etc). You can also click the option in the File submenu but I don't know how is it called in the English program. I think it must be 1) Open New File, 2) Open Exsiting Project, 3) Save Project, 4) Save Project As and 5) Save movie as (or whatever it's called, that's the option you need to export it to an actual video file).

    When it comes to cropping/resizing/rotating videos, I don't recommend W Movie Maker at all, I prefer to do that with Format Factory (used to do it with imTOO).
