I can't comment on the Kaiser's picture quality but when I owned a 8525, I never used the flash. The flash in 8525/Hermes, to me, was a joke. It did not really make any difference unless you were taking macro pictures at night. I'm glad that Tilt does not have it. One less thing to worry about. Just my opinion.

the only real use to the ''flash'' was the awesome flash-light.

agreed - I miss the flashlight.

the TyTN2 camera takes longer from button-push to snapshot than the TyTN - sometimes 2 seconds. Light sensitivity is better, but it's still a phone. Auto-focus seems to help but who can wait all that time?

yes the slow response time is kinda annoying. the pic quality is ok even without the flash, definitely not as good as my P1i sony ericsson.

DONATE TO ME
The camera is better than the TyTN but no flash leads for very jumpy framerates in low light conditions. Nicest thing is the two-press camera button. Half press for focus and full press to take - much more like any other camera-phone. Quality still not up to that of a SE or a small digital camera though...

Agreed - camera quality passable but not a patch on my K800i.

The image quality is OK (good for 3MP phone camera).

But the camera operation is very slow, jumpy and blurry when there are lot of movement of the object or when you pan the phone. I hate this.

And yes, the lag is really, really annoying You will not be able to take picture of moving object!

Default Flip chart text legible after transfer to PC?

Can someone share an image of a "flip chart" with letters or numerals approximately the same height as a man's palm?

I'm trying to decide between the Tilt (3MP, no flash) and the BB Curve (2MP, with flash). Shooting flip charts in typical conference room light with no natural window light is the only camera utilization that I expect. The images will be captured on the device, then transferred to a PC for transcription -- with essentially infinite optical zoom capability available.

Best,
