[Q] mms quality and camera quality

[mchimney]

Hey,
Just got my atrix today after huge fiasco with att stores. Anyway, so far i love it this thing is blazing fast compared to my captivate and the gps works =).
My one gripe is the camera quality, everything looks washed out almost like there is a film on the camera lense that can't be removed. The same thing applies to when i recieve an mms picture. The quality looks so bad that it's hard to even tell what it is sometimes

Anyone have any workarounds or tips on taking photos?

Yeah, noticed the same thing, especially coming from an iPhone 4, the photo AND video quality on the Atrix look washed out and grainy. Hopefully it would be a software fix.

The only solution so far is just to take photos in the 5MP resolution. the 3MP and Widescreen (which is like 3.?) are horrible.

I only take pictures at the 5mp quality and it seems to be fine? : shrug :

Correct, I love the phone but MMS coming from iphone 4 purely suck!

Also coming from iPhone 4, setting the camera to 5mp does seem to help some for sure though.

aye it looks fine when not comparing it to anything. But hands down the ip4 camera is far superior and even my captivate camera looks better, meanwhile they're all 5mp
