Camera Issue: Pixels destroyed under bright light

[[sammich]]

I see what you're talking about. It's a bit like oversaturation. But unfortunately here's not much we can do about it. For a cell-phone camera it's pretty good, but you'd need a nicer camera to get rid of some of the issues.

But you look a hell-of-alot like my friend

Anyway, this is common on a camera with such a small lens like jsls said. It isn't a corruption, the only reason you see it on a PC rather than on your Phone is because the Touch Pro doesn't cover the same color range as the monitor you have (65.5k vs. several million different colors).

There is nothing you can really do about it, a camera phone only has a 4-5mm cube like camera sensor so there isnt much that can be expected of it, at least in this day and age.

Ahh, that makes sense. Thanks for the feedback!

What's the EV level and how do I go about adjusting it?

digital camera = 127 or 256 levels per pixel.
Cheap digital camera = blown pixels, jpeg artifacts
Cheap plastic "lens" the size of a pea = oh, you get the idea by now....

The camera is crap. Don't expect it to outperform a $50 digicam. It *might* outperform this camera:


Oh, wait, that camera probably has better optics. And it's powered by Hanna Montana.

Good summary, schettj... Mainly because of that epic-win picture
