TyTN II Front Facing Camera better than rear?

[trjons]

Just playing around with the camera but it sure seems like the front facing camera works way better!

Wipe your finger prints from the rear lens! 3MP autofocus vs 640x480 pinhole? but you never know.

Oh, sorry, I'm lousy at reading between the lines...

Yeah, I could see that, maybe it uses less overhead to drive it.

If you are in a low-light situation this is easily explained: cameras with similar sensor sizes and lower pixels counts are more sensitive and produce images with less noise in low light. This is because the larger area of each pixel provides for more photons falling into the each one of them.
