Image quality is horrible !

MartinK1 — Fri, 04 Jul 2014 21:10:43 GMT

I sit here... looking at my self using the Z1C , using the face camera, the image is crisp and clear - then i click on shutter release and the phone turns the image into garbage !

CAN I PLEASE HAVE AN OPTION TO REMOVE THE HORRIBLE FILTERS YOU APPLY TO MY IMAGES ?

ive disabled the "Soft Skin Effect" but it seems that the noise reduciton is so heavy that the image turns to shiiiit !

I would prefer an image with color and chroma noise rather than this useless garbage !!

Did you dissable the scene in manual and try it? is the result the same?

If you use the shutter button there are 2 steps: press half way and lock the focus then fully press and activate the shutter.

The phone has many flaws but the image quality is quite good...

my pics here

note that they are all uploaded directly from the phone to flickr no editing at all
