Help with a phone picture, please (Page 2): Rex, No sir, it's a Caseo g2. It meets Mil specs. Since I'm a fire fighter I need a phone that can withstand water and temperture ranges.

Blake, I'm gettig rid of my Droid as well and looking for a tough flip phone with Military specks as well, how is that Caseo?

Take a look here. I live gently, so I've never had a cell phone break.

Obviuosly he had a real camera with him but had other problems, but then I guess you take the perfect picture every time you push the shutter button.

I Am hooked on my Iphone but spent $70 on a "Lifeproof" case. Waterproof to six feet, will withstand a 3-4 foot drop, dustproof. I have walked into the surf with it in my pocket and dropped it several feet with no damage.They ought to call it "idiotproof"!

That reminds me of a book I saw in the Library, "Job Hunting for Dummies." I think a dummy would need more than this book to help him get a job. Of course, first he'd have to be smart enough to check out the book.

Excuse me Sir,

Let me make myself very clear here. I do own a A 300 manufactured by Sony. I have take about 10,000 images with it. There have been times that I have take the camera while walking my dog. However, in this case I had no,t the only camera I had was my cellphone. I am very glad that you carry your camera ABSOLUTELY everywhere you go!!!

Respectfully,
Blake

Carry a real camera! HA, LOL. Sorry I couldnt resist. First whats a retail hawk! Ha, LOL ok Im sorry...well not really, anyway Im not a wiz on the subject of sensor size and I do believe thats the issue here nothing u can do as far as i know the sensors are just to small to blow up or print anything larger than 5x6 post card. Im sure there are other setting issues here also ( contrast, exposure, lens quality) Etc. ?

Blake, don't let some of the folks here get you down. I have learned that there are 2 classifications of photographers here at the hogg:
1. wannabees: quick with the smart ass remarks
2. Professional: quick with sharing their knowledge

Granted the iphone is looked upon with a bit of disdain by some of the photophiles here but non the less it is a camera. I personally have an Apple 3gs and have made close to a thousand pictures with it, sold several and entered several in a couple contests with 2 winning, both published. I also carry a Nikon D3100 for serious shooting, but it won't fit in my pocket.

Don't let them get you down, continue on and when you have a problem or question remember the Hogg is here to help. One thing I might suggest is if you have a question about one of your shots post it, w can better help if we see what your problem is.

Down the page you said you just got a flip phone that is millspec. And that it is a Casio G2. If that is a Casio Brigade, I may be of some help. I have one and it has, by far, one of the best cameras of any phone on the market. The main thing you may want to do when using it's camera is set the resolution to the 2048x1232 setting, rather than the 2048x1536 one. Then option 5 kicks in it's zoom mode. The 2048x1536 has no zoom mode for tech reasons. This may not help with the photo under question, but can be a big help in the future. I do a lot of work with mine as well as with my Pentax dslr and nearly everything I have shot can be zoomed to the max with still very good quality and then when scanned into my computer I can zoom and crop quite well. Now on the computer, I can zoom up to garbage if I so wish, but I just stop before the pixels get crappy.
