    Actually, I see no difference from the ones I used to get from my 9650. Do I have a bad one or the camera is just not that good?

    Hi and welcome to CrackBerry!
    I am very surprised that you are saying that about your camera. I have a Z10 and my photos are leaps and bounds better than my 9650 and my 9930 which I had after that.

    I'm sure a Q owner can help you with some tips and tricks to improve your photos.
    What specifically makes you think the camera is bad?

    The camera is fine but don't expect 8 MP on a phone camera to be like 8 MP on a digital camera. There's a reason why your digital camera is much larger and heavier than your cell phone.

    My Q10 camera works great! Takes great shots and enjoy being able to change the size from 1x1 to 4x3 and 16x9. Also the editing is great as well.

    I am impressed with the photo quality on my Q10. I used it to take all of our pics when we had our family vacation. I think the photo quality will continue to get better with each OS release.

    Just don't zoom in if you want the full 8 MP. There is no zoom lens so any zooming is just a crop of the full picture.

    works fine for me. HDR is pretty good. Low-light on 10.2.0.341 is unreal. You know that white noise "illya's" pic. It's completely gone with low-light. Just wait they are making improvements on the camera even though it's fine atm.

    I think it just depends on what you're comparing it to. Phone cameras will never be as good because of the limited size of the lens. However I think it's been pretty clearly shown that the ip5 and s4's cameras are better than the new blackberrys' although the iPhone's front facing camera has always been terrible.

    That said I'm pretty surprised you think the picture quality is the same ad your old blackberrys'. I'd load photos from both onto your computer where you can really judge the quality of pictures more accurately. That's if you haven't already done that

    I've been very impressed with the photo quality on the Q10 (at least when viewed on its screen). It's nowhere near as good as my 8 year old 8.2 megapixel dslr that I paid a ton for, but this is just a phone. Here, have a few samples from my phone. I'll try to give a variety of scenses/lighting

    They look really good on CB10 from your phone, but when I see them on the forums on my computer, they look more pixelated.

    This also goes for picture messaging. They look great on my phone, but when sent, they get reduced in quality. I'd love for them to stay high quality so other people can see how good my camera is...

    My first impressions of the Q10 pictures were quite negative. Pictures looked really AWFUL until "by accident" I discovered to connect the "image stabilizer" (or anti-shake) and from that moment on, my pictures look as good as the ones shown by "SHADEOFDAWN" in this forum.
